How can I implement async logging in ASP.NET MVC using NLog?

To implement async logging in ASP.NET MVC using NLog, you need to configure NLog to use asynchronous logging. This can be done by adding an AsyncWrapper in your NLog configuration.

Can you show me a sample NLog configuration for async logging?

Sure! Here’s a sample NLog configuration:

<nlog>
  <targets>
    <target xsi:type="AsyncWrapper" name="asyncFile" queueLimit="10000">
      <target xsi:type="File" name="file" fileName="logs/logfile.log" />
    </target>
  </targets>
  <rules>
    <logger name="*" minlevel="Debug" writeTo="asyncFile" />
  </rules>
</nlog>

What are the benefits of using async logging?

Async logging improves application performance by offloading the logging process to a separate thread, reducing the impact on the main application flow.
