This problem should be largely mitigated at this stage.  First, Ales fixed 
a bunch of these in MC.  Second, jboss-logging 2.2 and on automatically 
share logger instances, so 100,000 references to the same category == one 
object (but still an awful lot of redundant references).

However on a typical 64-bit system, 100k instances still == 800k RAM 
consumed, so yeah it's still wasteful.  Just not as.
