There are a number of reasons to use Log4Cocoa over something

ASL. The fact that it already supports Obj-C is the least of them.

As does ASL.

ASL does this too.
* different logging levels for different classes. This is a
biggie, as
often when you are debugging, you want to see very detailed log
messages,
but only for the class or subsystem of interest.
I think it's important to remember that ASL is a key-value store, not
your traditional dump to a tab-delimited logfile. You can log any set
of key-value pairs you want and filter it later.

Yes, you can filter. But you still have that huge amount of
information that was logged, taking up space, and having a huge
negative impact to performance. ASL just doesn't cut it, without
tones of extra code.
