 Just like in ticket #8244 and ticket #8367, ticket #9364 describes the log
 file being filled up with repeated logs.  This most recent is even more
 aggressive than what I described in the first bug... around 32 entries per
 millisecond.

 Is there any way that the logging function, upon receiving the same
 message as the previous message, could wait at least a second, if not
 more, to log an identical message to prevent hyperactive messages like
 this one from filling up logs in record time?

 In under two hours, it has generated 20 GB of logs.
