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

When I send 100k messages via log4net on a super fast machine with 1G link, use 
Blocking=false only get 33k mesages:
{quote}
33683
33733
33732

Use BeginSend can get 50k messages:

51238

>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Appenders
>    Affects Versions: 1.2.13
>         Environment: Any Windows environment

> Sending UDP packages may block for some time in specific circumstances:
> 1) Next hop in network level 3 can't be resolved by ARP.
> 2) Datagram size exceeds FastSendDatagramThreshold configured size.
> When sending packets bigger than FastSendDatagramThreshold, the OS waits 
> until the packet is actually sent, if the If the syslog (or the next hop to 
> reach the syslog) is in the same VLAN/Subnet the OS tries to resolve by ARP 
> the Ip of the configured syslog, this may take up to 3 seconds, slowing down 
> the whole application, which in some cases can lead to outages (timeouts, DB 
> locks...).
> Also the fact that each carriage return generates the headers of the packet 
> again, that can lead to a significant overhead in some scenarios, for 
> instance when loggign HTTP requests to a remote syslog, every header will go 
> in a different message. Also some logging may require characters that are now 
> skipped in patch:  https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4NET-370
> I'm adding a patch that
> 1) Moves the use of UDPClient to Non blocking sockets, which eliminates the 
> blocking. 
> 2) Adds a configuration field to decide if you want Strict RFC Behaviour or 
> not (with default Strict).
> Please your feedback, thanks in advance
