Stefan Groschupf commented on PIG-83:
-------------------------------------

Hi, 
sorry to say but from my experience within the last year java.util logging is a 
pain for serious production systems. 
We also should learn from the hadoop folks. They had a very long discussion 
about this topic and did use java.util logging in the first step but finally 
moved to log4j.
Pig might should not do the same mistake again.

> Pig is logging quite a lot into System.out or System.err. Using a embedded 
> pig in a production environment requires a logging abstraction like log4j, 
> commons logging, slf4j or something like that. 
> I would be happy to work on a patch if we decide what would be the best 
> choice. Hadoop uses log4j.
> Thanks.
