Mani,
You can define multiple appenders for multiple categories
and all these appenders being of type FileAppender.
I am not adding much to what Laith said in the earlier post but
here's a small chunk of what your properties file might look like.

log4j.appender.PERF=org.apache.log4j.FileAppender
log4j.appender.GENERIC=org.apache.log4j.MyFileAppender
log4j.appender.PERF.File=perf.log
log4j.appender.GENERIC.File=generic.log
<define patterns>
<define categories and assign priorities and appenders>
<DEFINITELY specify additivity properties and set them to false>

HTH.
Ashwin.

Hi Mani,
Define a logger (or category) in your code, say "perf"
that you would use for logging performance info and
another logger for the generic logs.
In your properties file, define the loggers:

log4j.logger.perf=DEBUG, PERFORMANCE
and set its aditivity to false so that you don't get
the other logs into this file
log4j.logger.perf.additivity=false

for the generic logger, you can use the root logger
appender or define its own appender same way as for
the perf logger above.

Regards,
Laith
