Through trial and error, I think this problem was due to incompatibilities between log4j 1.2.8 and Chainsaw v2. I'm guessing that Chainsaw saw location information in the LoggingEvents and dropped its connection to the application's SocketHubAppender. Then, they reconnected and the same thing happened again, over and over.
Anyhow, I ended up having to write my own code for the LogEventRepeater I needed. SimpleSocketServer didn't do exactly what I needed, and the underlying SocketNode didn't, either. In my case, due to this apparent incom- patibility, I needed a SocketNode that would filter out location information, plus I needed something like a SimpleSocketServer that would allow you to specify the IP address on which to listen for connections (for run- ning on a machine with multiple ethernet interfaces). But, it's all working nicely now, and I and the rest of my team are able to use Chainsaw v2 to monitor our application that's running on its own private network (with one gateway machine between it and us, which is where the LogEventRepeater runs). Chainsaw v2 really is a big improvement over v1! I can't wait for it (and log4j 1.3) to be ready for prime time and officially released.
