Ralph Goers commented on LOG4J2-3329:
-------------------------------------

There is not enough information to determine the problem. All the stack trace 
shows that an OutOfMemory Error occurred somewhere in the called Appender and 
was properly handled by AppenderControl. We would need a test project that 
demonstrates the problem to debug this.
