Hi, I am using log4j 1.2.15. I am pondering between DailyRollingFileAppender and RollingFileAppender.
For RollingFileAppender, I can enforce file size limit and MaxBackupIndex. But for DailyRollingFileAppender, i can not limit either. Aside from being difficult to planing disk space usage, does DailyRollingFileAppender cause inefficiency if the log file become huge? In theory, the log4j just keeps a fiel descriptor and append to the end. It should not matter that much if the log file is big or small. Did I miss anything. Any feedback or recommendation is appreciated. Thanks.
