Re: research non-blocking log4cxx appenders

Do we need to log so much information in production that logging will be
a significant contributor to (lack of) performance? For example, are we
intending to log significantly more than MySQL? If we use asynchronous
appenders, the logging may be unreliable (in addition to being
substantially more complex). Is that a reasonable trade-off?

If (synchronous) writing to files is sufficiently performant for Web
servers and the like, why is it insufficient for Qserv?

research non-blocking log4cxx appenders
<https://jira.lsstcorp.org/browse/DM-196>

Default appenders in log4css are blocking (synchronous). This will
dramatically impair performance of systems such as Qserv. We need to
research the non-blocking appenders, and eventually switch to using
them, in particular for production.
