LOG4J2-3198 - Log4j2 no longer formats lookups in messages by default
> Message lookups should be disabled by default
> ---------------------------------------------
>
> Key: LOG4J2-3198
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-3198
> Project: Log4j 2
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Layouts

> Reporter: Carter Kozak

>
> Lookups in messages are confusing, and muddy the line between logging APIs
> and implementation. Given a particular API, there's an expectation that a
> particular shape of call will result in specific results. However, lookups in
> messages can be passed into JUL and will result in resolved output in log4j
> formatted output, but not any other implementations despite no direct
> dependency on those implementations.
> There's also a cost to searching formatted message strings for particular
> escape sequences which define lookups. This feature is not used as far as
> we've been able to tell searching github and stackoverflow, so it's
> unnecessary for every log event in every application to burn several cpu
> cycles searching for the value.
