The email thread you pointed to was very informative, especially since
I was about to go down the road of creating one logger per context
(eek!).
Whichever method I choose, I am particularly concerned with the
following aspect:
I like to use the "logger.debug("msg %s %s", s1, s2)" format, as I
understand that when the logging for this log level is turned off, we
don't have to do the potentially expensive string building that a '%'
operator would imply.
It seems like using something other than a literal string in the
message is the way to go, since I assume that its __repr__() won't get
called unless the logger is actually going to log a message for it.
Is that right?
Are any of the other methods likely to provide as-good or better
performance?
thanks,
Gary
