-----------------------------------
Summary: Add a "fast defaults" option to make modern
configurations simpler
Key: LOG4J2-1870
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1870
Project: Log4j 2
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Core
Reporter: Matt Sicker
There have been a few non-default options added over various releases which
improve the performance of Log4j. These include:
* Async loggers
* Direct console appender
* Async Kafka appender
This feature should add a Log4j system property to quickly enable fast defaults
instead of the backward compatible ones. This should enable async loggers
globally when the LMAX library is available. This should also enable current
and future fast options to appenders and other plugins.
Ideally, this feature should be accompanied by an explanation of how to choose
options and appenders for difference scenarios. For example, it would be great
to explain why a user might use different wait strategies in different
scenarios (high throughput versus low latency versus safety), or why using
different clocks than the default can be useful. Explicit details of all
available options should remain on their normal manual pages, but quick
summaries and pointers on such a page would be useful.
