                 Key: LBCORE-243
                 URL: http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCORE-243
             Project: logback-core
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Appender
    Affects Versions: 1.0.0
            Reporter: Petr H
            Assignee: Logback dev list


Based on the "log4j performance comparison" discussion in the logback-user 
mailing list:
http://old.nabble.com/log4j-performance-comparison-td31183677.html

I'd like to see at least the ImmediateFlush option back as it causes really big 
difference in writing performance at our systems with heavy logging activity.
Last logback release with ImmediateFlush option is 0.9.18 and this is the one 
we have to stay at due to performance reasons. We can't afford to upgrade to 
later logback release or switch ImmediateFlush to true as it makes some of our 
systems practically unusable.

The best option seems to be the use of FileWriter with the possibility to set 
the ImmediateFlush option and also buffering (wrapping with BufferedWriter and 
use of BufferedIO + BufferSize options) can help a little.
