    This is not related to this PR, but its something I learned about slf4j vs 
log4j.  This conversation reminded me of it and I thought it was worth sharing.
    
    Varargs methods can be expensive in a tight loop, because it allocates an 
array and copies to it.  Slf4j avoids this for one and two arguments by 
providing specialized methods.  However 3 or more args will use varargs.  
    
    I learned from @EdColeman that log4j V2  provides specialized methods for 
up to 10 arguments to avoid varargs. For example this is the [debug method that 
takes 10 
args](https://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/log4j-api/apidocs/org/apache/logging/log4j/Logger.html#debug-org.apache.logging.log4j.Marker-java.lang.String-java.lang.Object-java.lang.Object-java.lang.Object-java.lang.Object-java.lang.Object-java.lang.Object-java.lang.Object-java.lang.Object-java.lang.Object-java.lang.Object-)
    
    Wish slf4j had this.
