Can you clarify if possible what purpose you were trying to solve by enabling 
the forensic logs?

Forensic logging is to answer the question "what is going wrong", and shouldn't 
be enabled under normal operational circumstances unless there is something 
genuinely going wrong, at which point you record what you need and then switch 
it off again.

A forensic log that has had a whole lot of filters applied to it is 
counterproductive, because the forensic log no longer tells you exactly what is 
going on, and when you're troubleshooting you need to know precisely that.
