[jetty-users] excessive logging by Jetty causing slowdown of server

["Hemanth Haridas (Tech - BLR)" <hemanth.haridas@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello

We are using jetty 8.1.14.v20131031 on Java 6.

We are seeing the following warning (When we have a server load) . The warning gets repeated thousands of time and this is slowing down our server and causing timeouts. 

2014-06-11 07:18:03,500  [qtp1653858092-49 Selector7] WARN  org.eclipse.jetty.io.nio - Dispatched Failed! SCEP@4a18198b{l(/10.65.30.11:11500)<->r(/IP:PORT),s=-1,open=true,ishut=false,oshut=false,rb=false,wb=false,w=true,i=0}-{AsyncHttpConnection@74351aad,g=HttpGenerator{s=0,h=-1,b=-1,c=-1},p=HttpParser{s=-14,l=0,c=0},r=0} to org.eclipse.jetty.server.nio.SelectChannelConnector$ConnectorSelectorManager@733d7210

The problem is quite similar to the following stack exchange thread. - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16592537/jetty-8-1-flooding-the-log-file-with-dispatched-failed-messages.

Is turning off the warning the right solution?

Does this issue get resolved if we move to Jetty9 from Jetty 8. 

Right now we are not in a position to move from Jetty 8 to Jetty9 as this involves moving from Java 6 to Java 7 and we do not want to do that move immediately due to other pressing priorities. 

Is this a known issue and Is there a patch for the issue.  Is there a solution without moving from Jetty 8 to Jetty 9 .

Warm Regards
