As I mentioned, I took part in a project where we were required to have some
predefined format of dates printed in the log messages. I don't remember
precisely the reason, but the logging was part of requirements and the log
messages were precisely defined by the spec. This is why I'm asking about it.

Regarding performance: one have to measure it, but my guess is that the
performance of formatter for the typical message containing only %s as the
parameter placeholders should be more or less the same as for formatter that
uses messages with {} as placeholders: now the formatter searches for character
'{' in the message, and the java.util.Formatter searches for '%' characters.
Looks similar.
