             Summary: Improve Log4jAppender's performance by allowing logging collection of messages
                 Key: FLUME-3144
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-3144
             Project: Flume
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 1.7.0
            Reporter: Denes Arvay
            Assignee: Denes Arvay


Currently it's only possible to send events one by one with the Log4j appender. (Except if the events are wrapped in an avro record but it's quite cumbersome and might need special handling on the receiving side)

As the Log4j methods can handle any {{Object}} I'd suggest to improve the Log4j appender to treat {{Collection}} event as a special case and send its content to Flume with one {{rpcClient.appendBatch()}} call.
