I've just tried to reproduce this issue under same condtions as yours. From
my tests :
- openjdk-7u25 + log4j 2.0-beta8 => Crash with OOM
- openjdk-7u25 + log4j 2.0-beta9 => OK
So it seems that this issue root cause is (was?) inside log4j 2.x

Could you please test with latest release of log4j 2 and confirm this ?

Regards,
