Bug Description
Hi,
I recently installed Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS (dual boot installation on a new Dell XPS15 laptop shipped with Windows 11 Pro).
For the last couple of days, when I try typing more than one letter in the files search menu, I get a ' "Files" is not responding ' message and have to force quit.
My /var/log/syslog (and a syslog.1) had grown to a large number of GB (so I won't attempt to attach it). I purged them a while ago but syslog has grown again to >23GB. It seems filled by lines all similar to these two:

Your help resolving this would be much appreciated.
