Review Comment:
   Yes, it is supposed to be run only once.
   I prefer not to set it to true within finally block because we want to make 
sure it is only set to true if setupSystem() is completed successfully. In case 
that setupSystem() fails (throwing some exceptions for example), we want to 
leave it as false.
   
   The same reason applies to the option of AtomicBoolean. there are two cons 
for that:
   1. same as above, can not make sure setupSystem() runs fine
   2. perf reason, compareAndSet AtomicBoolean in line 190 means every time 
LOG.xxx() StreamAppender needs to check the AtomicBoolean which is expensive 
than checking a boolean
