Ismael Juma commented on KAFKA-1351:
------------------------------------
Fabian, the `trace` call uses a by-name parameter, which means that the
`format` call will only happen if `isTraceEnabled` is `true`.
> String.format is very expensive in Scala

> As found in KAFKA-1350, logging is causing significant overhead in the
> performance of a Kafka server. There are several info statements that use
> String.format which is particularly expensive. We should investigate adding
> our own version of String.format that merely uses string concatenation under
> the covers.
