AsyncAppender questions

Hi,

The documentation for AsyncAppender doesn't really
help me figure out what it is useful for. Is it just
for sending stuff to multiple appenders?

Thanks

Andrew

RE: AsyncAppender questions

Nope

It's for letting a second thread handle the actual logging. This means that
the thread initiating the logging will gain control immediately after
submitting the entry, and the logging-thread (which is a low-priority daemon
thread) will only send the entry to the sink when the application thread(s)
blocks.
