This is running in Tomcat 8.0.33 in a Docker Container via AWS’s ECS which is
identical to before with log4j2 2.5.
We’ve run the application with Visual VM and the one thing for sure that we’ve
seen is that in 2.6.2 it created tons of threads, something like 50+ but on 2.6
or 2.7 it was only 2. Now the threads were short lived, but they got created.
We’re running another performance test today with Async loggers to see if that
helps or exhibits the same thing though previous testing with Async had some of
the same char
Here’s our layout pattern:
[%t] %d{DATE} %-5p %-15c{1} [%X]: %cm%n
Please not the %cm is a custom message handler that we use to use to handle
security filtering of the message payload aka we extend from
LogEventPatternConverter.
Thanks,
Ron DiFrango
