Details

Using console.createInstance.
When logging something requires expensive operations, it would be nice to be able to skip the work if it won't be logged.

For example, instead of:

let serializedComplexObject = expensiveOp();
logConsole.trace(serializedComplexObject);

one could do:

if (logConsole.logLevelAtLeast("Trace")) {
  let serializedComplexObject = expensiveOp();
  logConsole.trace(serializedComplexObject);
}
