Alan,
as I said to Uwe, he should remove the logging configuration file I gave
him to temporarily diagnose an issue. The default logging is not verbose
at all and absolutely trivial compared to other file writes by WSJT-X in
normal operation, like ALL.TXT and the ADIF log file. There is a
configuration that can be written to disable all logging but you can
forget any support from us if you do that as even errors and warnings
will not be logged.

Hi, I don't care about the file size from a capacity point of view but
I agree the number of SSD writes involved does maybe seem a little bit
wasteful of SSD write life?
Even if the number of these writes are small in the overall scheme of
things, over an entire machine they can mount up to something more
significant.
Are there any others?
If so could there perhaps be a diagnostic mode where such files get
written, but otherwise they don't? Would also cut resource use,
always a good thing in my view, even if relatively minimal.

Hello Bill,
I just noticed that WSJT-X v2.3.0-rc3 (64-bit) creates a file
wsjtx_syslog.log in the log directory, which increases in size very
quickly.An example: Just a single start of the program with my RX
(Rig = none) generates a file with 4973 lines after about 2
minutes!(see file attached)
What is this for?Does that really make sense?Why are there so many
lines with [RIGCTRL] although Rig is “none”?
How can I turn off these many unnecessary SSD writes?Will that also
be the case in the GA?The wsjtx_log_config.ini file that you sent me
a few weeks ago doesn't seem to have any effect on this.

Hi Uwe,
delete the wsjtx_log_config.ini file, then the logging reverts to
default verbosity which is very low. The log file is rotated so its
size is limited.
