Log4j configurability not taking in count

According to the documentation, we can use our own log4j.

I have try to customize it to run the tests more fast by:
-disabling info logs
-making the log asynchronous (org.apache.log4j.AsyncAppender)

Unfortunately in the code, some logs dont behave according to the changed configuration . The most verbose one is this line :

10:20:45,332 INFO  [SoapUITestCaseRunner] running step [GetDirectVariablesChildren -idvar2]
10:20:45,348 INFO  [SoapUITestCaseRunner] Assertion [SOAP Response] has status VALID
10:20:45,348 INFO  [SoapUITestCaseRunner] Assertion [Schema Compliance] has status VALID

And according to your code line 543, we have those lines :

 log.info( "Assertion [" + assertion.getName() + "] has status " + assertion.getStatus());
                                if( assertion.getStatus() == AssertionStatus.FAILED )
                                {
                                        log.info( "ASSERTION FAILED -> " + assertion.getErrors());

As you can see ther is no condition test if log.isInfoEnabled().

Im trying to disable without success :

   <logger name="com.eviware.soapui.tools.SoapUITestCaseRunner">
     <level value="OFF" />
     <appender-ref ref="ASYNC"/>
   </logger>

I'm using sopaui 3.5.1 but This code pointed is in the trunk too.

I know i could rebuild it but could you please try to investigate that ?


Thanks in advance for your support.
