>             Project: Log4j 2
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Core
>    Affects Versions: 2.0-beta4

> The initialization of Log4j 2.0 beta4 via an InputStream takes too long. I attached an small performance test which reproduces the problem. On my machine (Dell Latidude E6530 with an Intel Core i7-3720QM CPU @ 2.6 GHz and 8 GB RAM, OS: Windows 7 64-bit) the test takes approximately one second to complete. On the machine at the customer project, I'm currently working on, it's even worse.
> After analyzing this, I found out that the method org.apache.logging.log4j.core.config.plugins.PluginManager.collectPlugins() is called way to often which consumes most time of the initialization!
