> performance problem.  Some of the performance is due to the flexibility

> 3. To date, the JOTM project lead (David Egolf) has identified a
> requirement for a more performant journal for use in JOTM to support
> restart and recovery features.  Also, David has discussed with the 
> GERONIMO
> team a need for journals that perform better than the J2SE 1.4 log
> facility, and Log4j.  So far, there has been no development.
