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 plan disk space usage in advance, 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.
