Well, to be really fair compare it with :

  if(logger.isDebugEnabled()){
        logger.debug("...");
  }
And yeah, it requires a bit more typting if you want to enforce a certain event format and want to add more parameters. But you only do that once, and I'd say you gain much more for your effort.

Fyi, intended usage with most Java loggers is to just call

    logger.debug("...");
and ignore the conditional. If `!logger.isDebugEnabled` then the logger will ignore the message, so it avoids boilerplate.

You want to wrap it in an if in order to avoid doing extra work ( like string concatenation or whatever ) and save some computation. It's to improve performance when logging is not enabled.

No good if you're computing the message somehow. e.g.

    logger.debug(generateSomethingLarge());

Generally you would log with placeholders, like

    logger.debug("My logger message has placeholders {}, {}, {}", some, objects, toLog);
which avoids the issue.
