[opencms-dev] Beware the logs on production server

Hi all:

Everybody knows it, but Beware the logs active in production server, they
could increase the out of memory errors.

If you need logs, however, don't forget to edit
opencms/WEB-INF/conf/opencms.properties and set
"log4j.logger.org.opencms.loader=WARN"

This (at least) ignores the killer trace "ignoring socket write error"

You can check the effects of this clicking a lot of times over the same link
and very fast, before the page reload, producing a huge quantity of
requests. It's like a DoS attack.

I'm looking forward to filter this kind of flooding ...
