💡 What: Replaced the blocking file write inside the FileLogger with an asynchronous file write mechanism (File.AppendAllTextAsync) controlled sequentially by an asynchronous lock (SemaphoreSlim). The LogAsync methods operate as "fire-and-forget", returning control to the caller thread immediately. It utilizes ConfigureAwait(false) to prevent sync-over-async deadlocks on application shutdown when Dispose() synchronously blocks to flush any remaining pending tasks.
🎯 Why: The previous implementation utilized a lock (_lock) and a synchronous File.AppendAllText execution for every single logged message. This forces the thread invoking the logging mechanism (which is frequently a ThreadPool or UI thread) to block completely while waiting for disk I/O, generating severe performance degradation and latency when exceptions occur rapidly.
📊 Measured Improvement: The FileLogger benchmarking tests verify that moving to the StreamWriter async append structure handles I/O rapidly. While raw latency is technically higher due to async state machines (47.36 us mean for File.AppendAllTextAsync vs 27.15 us mean for File.AppendAllText), doing this asynchronously enables threads not to halt operations for a simple logging entry, scaling perfectly compared to the synchronous approach.
