Apologies if this question has already been asked but I had a quick search and couldn't find anything. From what I can see in the fourms there are several issues with the performance of CI logging and its been suggested that the CI logging is to be used more for development purposes rather than as a logging mechamism in a production environment.
Therefore my question is if I have for example lots of debug messages littered throughout my code and I release this code to my production server with logging set to error, is there a hit on performance as CI obvioulsy has to check each log statement in the code to decide if it needs to write it to the log file it or not.
