heh. i'm surprised at the hostility towards this log. I really like not having to add the isDebugEnabled() guard around my debug statements to save the string building. beyond that, the formatting comes for free. Before i would just use String.format in my normal log4j logger messages. As far as logging during development, i usually just attach a debugger and do it that way. I find it to be a much faster method most of the time. I only wish i could do the same through the pages...
