Should we add a dedicated logger for when users are doing inefficient things?

[chrisdutz]

Hi all,

so, thanks to Cesar's latest additions in the S7 driver, we are now able to read Strings even without providing a length. However this feature is super-cool, when it comes to ad-hoc queries, it has quite a performance impact when trying to poll data fast.

I know there are multiple occasions where similar things work, but come at quite high costs.

I was thinking of having a dedicated logger with a fixed name, that we could use to globally log such things (similar to the deprecation logs in java). If someone's having performance issues, first thing we could ask him to do, would be to enable that logger.

What do you folks think?
