Jonathan Halliday commented on JBTM-331:
----------------------------------------
Changed the log level for these statements in the arjuna code from INFO to DEBUG. Arjuna
logging does not use a trace level.
At first glance it seems this change won't make any difference, since
JakartaRelevelingLogger is rewriting arjuna INFO to AS DEBUG anyhow, i.e. the messages are
still at DEBUG level by the time they hit the AS logging code.
However, they should now only get that far if com.arjuna.common.util.logging.DebugLevel is
set, which it is not by default. (Setting DEBUG for com.arjuna in the app server log4j is
not by itself enough to have arjuna DEBUG level log statements appear - debugging needs to
be on in the jbossjta-properties.xml file too)
So now you'll get these messages appearing in the app server log file only if you
explicitly turn on DEBUG level logging for the transaction service, not just the app
server. Thus the app server is normally silent when 'idle' with a DEBUG level
setting in log4j.
The alternative approach would be to modify JakartaRelevelingLogger to globally rewrite
arjuna DEBUG to app server TRACE, but that's a more radical change and may have
unintended side effects, so it's preferable to avoid if possible.
Reduce the log level of the periodic recovery stuff

The JBossAS log (as of 5.0.0.Beta4) is filled with this kind of thing:

These messages ought to be at TRACE level. The first hint is that this is the only thing
spamming the log after successful startup. Also on more than one occasion, folks pop into
the public #jboss IRC channel asking about why their logs get spammed with these messages.
An otherwise idle JBossAS instance quietly gobbles 750kb of disk space a day with these
messages.
