magicwerk opened a new pull request, #3645:
URL: https://github.com/apache/logging-log4j2/pull/3645
It is one of the design goals of Log4j "to deliver excelling performance
without almost any burden on the Java garbage collector."
However this is currently not true for primitive arrays, here Log4j
allocates unneeded temporary strings if a primitive array is logged as
parameter.
Current implementation:
Method ParameterFormatter.appendArray() delegats to
java.util.Arrays.toString() which then allocates a new StringBuilder to return
a String which is then added to the existing StringBuilder.
Improved implementation:
For all primitive types, a method like ParameterFormatter.appendArray(int[],
StringBuilder) has been added which is called by
ParameterFormatter.appendArray() and avoids the unnecessary object creation.
A JHM benchmark shows that this changes increases performance and reduces
memory consumption to zero:
