[jira] [Created] (LOG4J2-2699) Please reduce the size of log4j-core.jar

Adrian Cole created LOG4J2-2699:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: Please reduce the size of log4j-core.jar
                 Key: LOG4J2-2699
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-2699
             Project: Log4j 2
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: Core
            Reporter: Adrian Cole


The log4j-core jar is quite large now, 2MiB, and including a lot of functionality irrelevant to others. For example, a quarter meg is "picocli" and also the maven pom internally is huge. It seems there could be some quick wins to reduce it. Alternatively, create a jar that is dedicated to commodity feature vs the kitchen sink. Zipkin is trying to make a slim build and log4j2 is one of our largest dependencies
