The Appender.doAppend method is syncronized for all appenders that are shipped with log4j. See also the code in the
Category.callAppenders(LoggingEvent event) method. The synchronization model has been improved in log4j 1.3.

Hi All
I understand that the Logger instance that gets created depends on the
String that is passed to the static getLogger("some name") method of
Logger. And this String usually is same as FQN of the class.  But, we
really do not need  to use the FQN of the class , as our log messages
are not going to be used for debugging purpose, so it does not matter
from where they originated.
So if we pass the same string always say "Activity"  to the getLogger()
method  from every single class of our application, there will be One
and only one instance of Logger that will perform the logging . Is that
right ? if so, will it effect performance ? How about concurrency ?
Any suggestions ?

Thanks for the help
