ActionServlet sets datasource log writer - causes oracle jdbc driver to spew out megabytes of log/run out of memory

           Summary: ActionServlet sets datasource log writer - causes oracle
                    jdbc driver to spew out megabytes of log/run out of
                    memory
           Product: Struts
           Version: 1.1 Beta 3
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: Other
         Component: Standard Actions
        AssignedTo: struts-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: david@pastornet.net.au


This problem showed up for us in struts 1.02 but I notice the following is still
present in the struts 1.1b3 source code.  From ActionServlet.java:

    ds.setLogWriter(scw);

When jdbc is used directly from the web tier, the above statement makes the
oracle jdbc driver spew out megabytes (eg 100Mb in a short time) of internal
logging, and slows things down -tremendously-.   In fact it causes the container
(tomcat 3.2.1) to run out of memory because the log file isn't written
immediately and the log is cached in memory.

There doesn't seem to be a way to tell struts to not do this.
