Subject: Re: [slf4j-user] Mix final non-static logger with a kind of SingletonLoggerFactory


Hello Florian,

You probably don't have 10'000 classes but 10'000 *instances* of a class or a 
few classes.

Anyway, you don't have to through a factory because the SLF4J factory will 
always return the same instance. Do read [1] for more info on this topic.

Cheers,
