[logback-dev] [JIRA] Commented: (LBCLASSIC-20) Implement AsyncAppender

Wascally Wabbit commented on LBCLASSIC-20:
------------------------------------------

This issue has been closed but the ORIGINAL poster's request for AsyncAppender was not addressed (the second poster linked generic AsyncAppender to compression for whatever reason and looks like Ceki was addressing this poster when he closed the issue).

At work,I  was *this* (little space) close to recommending a migration from log4j/jul/jcl to slf4j+logback but the lack of an AsyncAppender as the original poster noted is a significant issue for use in production. We have many large applications (by usage) and custom log4j appenders that will migrate beautifully *iff* we also had AsyncAppender. 

So why the lack of an async decorator? Does anyone really use custom database/jms appenders without this in production for high volume?

At this point, even if you've got something "internal" I'll take it!

Thanks,
WW

> Being able to write log files in the background is a requirement for production deployments of anything we would write on top of logback.
> Bonus points for including a feature to periodically flush the output.
