[jira] Commented: (CASSANDRA-813) add some kind of logging of GC activity

["Jonathan Ellis (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-813?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12836196#action_12836196 ] 

Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-813:
------------------------------------------

Looks like the only way is to redirect stdout? err? to log4j.

Juha at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1200175/log4j-redirect-stdout-to-dailyrollingfileappender offers:

// PrintStream object that prints stuff to log4j logger
public class Log4jStream extends PrintStream {
      public void write(byte buf[], int off, int len) {
        try {
           // write stuff to Log4J logger
        } catch (Exception e) {
       }
    }
}

// reassing standard output to go to log4j
System.setOut(new Log4jStream());

> "help, my node froze when i hammered it too hard" is a faq. before we have CASSANDRA-685 it would be nice to make it obvious what is going on w/ gc storms.
