Remko Popma commented on LOG4J2-1807:
-------------------------------------

They have different usages. From memory: the Builder is used in the critical 
path for non-garbagefree logging (so needs to be fast), while the 
serialize-deserialize implementation is used by some appenders like the SMTP 
appender. I believe both implementations have existed for a long time. It may 
be possible to unify them but we would need to be very sure there's no side 
effect anywhere...
