= Lock-free Asynchronous Loggers for Low-Latency Logging
- Remko Popma <rpo...@apache.org>
-Asynchronous logging can improve your application's performance by
-executing the I/O operations in a separate thread. Log4j 2 makes a
-number of improvements in this area.
-
-* *Asynchronous Loggers* are a new addition in Log4j 2. Their aim is to
-return from the call to Logger.log to the application as soon as
-possible. You can choose between making all Loggers asynchronous or
-using a mixture of synchronous and asynchronous Loggers. Making all
-Loggers asynchronous will give the best performance, while mixing gives
-you more flexibility.
-* *LMAX Disruptor technology*. Asynchronous Loggers internally use the
-link:#UnderTheHood[Disruptor], a lock-free inter-thread communication
-library, instead of queues, resulting in higher throughput and lower
-latency.
-* As part of the work for Async Loggers, *Asynchronous Appenders* have
-been enhanced to flush to disk at the end of a batch (when the queue is
-empty). This produces the same result as configuring
-"immediateFlush=true", that is, all received log events are always
-available on disk, but is more efficient because it does not need to
-touch the disk on each and every log event. (Async Appenders use
-ArrayBlockingQueue internally and do not need the disruptor jar on the
-classpath.)
