What benign purpose does this feature serve and why does it have to be implemented by parsing the input string? Does the input string get modified before being written into the log? I'll ask again because the information presented so f

Thanks for the write-up but I have a few questions. Why does log4j's .log() method attempt to parse the strings sent to it? It is the last thing I would expect it to do. Is the part in the sample code where the user's input is out

They almost certainly do adjust CPU frequency as well (although I don't have a 2020 Mac to check this). Lowering the frequency would mean fewer instructions can be processed per second which means you are more likely to see a higher CP
