Chainsaw blocks system

[Tormod Omholt-Jensen <to...@agentus.no>]

I use Chainsaw for monitoring a system.  Some times if Chainsaw runs for a 
long time, Chainsaw reports an out of memory exception.  When t is happens, 
my application is blocked until the Chainsaw process is killed.  I use 
Chainsaw v1.   Anyone who has experience something similar?

The log4j config I use
-------------------------------

log4j.rootCategory=DEBUG, A2

log4j.appender.A2=org.apache.log4j.net.SocketAppender
log4j.appender.A2.RemoteHost=10.0.1.1
log4j.appender.A2.Port=4445

Chainsaw v1 has this limitation.  Chainsaw v2 does not, it can use a
rolling cyclic buffer of a configurable size so you do not run out of
memory.

See here for more info, including how to get Chainsaw v2:

http://logging.apache.org/log4j/docs/chainsaw.html

Installation instructions are here:
