Oops - looks like a controversial one...


I was assuming that since the debug output was controlled by variable and
not just by the jboss.conf logging options that it was very much a
development only kind of output.  And thus we would want to optimise it out
at the earliest opportunity in a prod environment - to make that CMP stuff
really fly  ;-)

Maybe I was wrong.

I can see that changing it at runtime has some advantages - and I didn't
'twig' that I could just set the flag from my code too - which might be
useful...

Please vote and I'll amend it accordingly.

Chris
