[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (LOGMGR-116) Correct or remove usage of finalize in LoggerNode

[David Lloyd (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/LOGMGR-116?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13009471#comment-13009471 ] 

David Lloyd commented on LOGMGR-116:
------------------------------------

This finalize is designed to behave equivalently to the JUL version.  So far this usage has not been observed to actually cause any issues with the finalizer thread - it could conceivably do so in a case where you have a hierarchy of loggers that is hundreds of levels deep and exponential in breadth, but the simple massive number of objects that such a case would create would be a far larger factor.

I think it should be kept as-is unless a problem is observed, at which time a dedicated cleanup thread should be used instead.
