Hi,
We're integrating log4j into a project.
Performance is curucial, so we use Async File Appender.
I understand that logging requests are placed into a queue, which is consumed
by a dedicated thread that performs the IO to file.
My question:
What happends, by default, if the queue fills up (i.e. logging messages arrive
too fast for the IO thread to handle) ?
Can you tell log4j to silently dismiss messages, if queue is full ? The system
is "almost realtime", so we'd rather loose a log message, than hinder
performance.
Thanks very much.
