-------------------------------------

Vlad, thanks for raising this request.

To clarify, you are proposing to modify the current Logger API methods that 
take a String parameter to instead take a CharSequence, correct?

Before:
{code}
//org.apache.logging.log4j.Logger
debug(Marker marker, String message)
debug(Marker marker, String message, Object... params)
debug(Marker marker, String message, Supplier<?>... paramSuppliers)
debug(Marker marker, String message, Throwable t)
debug(String message)
debug(String message, Object... params)
debug(String message, Supplier<?>... paramSuppliers)
debug(String message, Throwable t)
{code}

After:
{code}
//org.apache.logging.log4j.Logger
debug(Marker marker, CharSequence message)
debug(Marker marker, CharSequence message, Object... params)
debug(Marker marker, CharSequence message, Supplier<?>... paramSuppliers)
debug(Marker marker, CharSequence message, Throwable t)
debug(CharSequence message)
debug(CharSequence message, Object... params)
debug(CharSequence message, Supplier<?>... paramSuppliers)
debug(CharSequence message, Throwable t)
{code}


> Provide support for CharSequence parameters for low and zero-GC applications

>             Project: Log4j 2
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>          Components: API
>    Affects Versions: 2.5
>            Reporter: Vlad Shurupov
>              Labels: features, performance
>
> Currently, the preferred way of logging character sequences in log4j 2 is by 
> passing in tokens of type {{java.lang.String}}. It would be very beneficial 
> if the API could provide methods that take {{java.lang.CharSequence}} tokens. 
> This would allow high performance zero or low-GC applications to re-use the 
> existing mutable structures implementing {{java.lang.CharSequence}}  for 
> continuous logging without new objects being created.
> A high-performance implementation of the logger would be expected to copy out 
> the contents of a single or multiple instances of {{java.lang.CharSequence}} 
> so that they could be re-used in the subsequent logging call.
