Hi,
It seems that 'autoflush' doesn't mean what it usually does in
Catalyst::Log::Log4perl. It usually means that a write should happen
immediately, and not be buffered.
That isn't the behaviour in Catalyst::Log::Log4perl, either when set
using the log4perl conf, or when using the option to new(). The option
to new() disables 'abort', which I think is a misunderstanding. The
logging functions always simply push to the log4perlstack, which is only
flushed after the request has been mostly handled.
In order to get autoflush working as expected, I have had to create a
derived class and override _log():
sub _log {
my $self = shift;
$self->SUPER::_log(@_);
$self->_flush if scalar(caller(1)) =~ /^MyApp(::|$)/;
}

I've raised a bug in RT for this:
