             Summary: [Perf] Custom TimeFormat for 
                 Key: LOG4J2-1097
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1097
             Project: Log4j 2
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Layouts, Pattern Converters
    Affects Versions: 2.3
            Reporter: Remko Popma
             Fix For: 2.4


In addition to the work done for LOG4J2-812 (replace synchronized 
SimpleDateFormat with commons FastDateFormat) I see a way to improve 
performance for the timestamp even further.

Ralph posted some very nice JMH benchmark results in LOG4J2-812, where the 
combination of caching, FastDateFormat and an AtomicReference was the winner.

I believe this is the way to go, but we may be able to do even better. For some 
common date formats, it is possible to get a 5X speedup versus FastDateFormat. 

This is not as generic as FastDateFormat; at the moment it only supports 
{{HH:mm:ss,SSS}}. I would like to support the "common" DatePatternConverter 
formats ABSOLUTE, COMPACT, DATE_AND_TIME, DEFAULT, ISO8601_BASIC and ISO8601. 
For any other date format pattern we fall back to FastDateFormat.

Performance results are below (benchmark is in git master):
