We've had some problems on SMP machines when logging from multiple
threads at the same time to the same logger. We're using
the RollingFileAppender for output. Sometimes the logging has stopped
completly (it would start again if we touched the configuration file,
causing it to be reloaded), sometimes we've had two log entries being
interleaved in the same line in the log file! Setting the affinity to
one processor has solved it for us. This is with the beta8 release.
