David Lloyd commented on LOGMGR-140:
------------------------------------

It has been discovered that method handles are much more expensive memory-wise than reflection. It could still be OK to use for one-offs but this should be kept in mind for later.

> Use of reflection should be reduced or completely removed in favor of using {{MethodHandle}}'s.
> Currently reflection is used in:
> * {{org.jboss.logmanager.config.AbstractPropertyConfiguration}}
> * {{org.jboss.logmanager.AtomicArray}}
> * {{org.jboss.logmanager.LogManager}}
> It's possible {{org.jboss.logmanager.LogManager}} may be tricky since it uses hacks to add levels.
