We saw logs fill with this (at very high speeds):

Why not just disable the config option for it if you don't care?

I don't mind seeing it, just don't want thousands of them in my logs
in a very short amount of time.  Maybe I was just hitting some
other bug, and there is no valid reason for this to ever spam?

Thanks,
Ben
