hi dave, I just didn't get it out of your mail: what exactly does this thing do and what should it do? from what I understood it just generates some kind of numeric that will be added near the datetime of a log entry? why wouldn't you print the CPU cycle there? I'm quite sure that would be vastly faster than these string operations, which, from a first point of view cost a significant amount of performance. oh and, ahm, your code cant be merged into log4net as the licenses are incompatible (see your header). greetings, d.
