I don't really like feature-wise comparisons between different things, 
and Boost.Log and log4cxx are very different in architecture and thus 
provided features. The comparison will be unfair to both libraries. You 
can build your opinion by reading their docs and examples and choosing 
which of them fits you most.

As for performance, the mentioned above forum thread should give you the 
idea. As I said, I will add a performance section to the docs.
