Comment 38 for bug 1969315

Here, this issue comes and goes. It felt like having a brutal prune of how many ISOs etc I was seeding got rid of it, but it's back again.

I did the grep above to see the messages in syslog.. ah, that's quite a lot, isn't it? How many lines?

user@pc:~$ grep 'transmission' -c /var/log/syslog
5399493

!!! Ah, that's why syslog is so large... and that's just the number of transmission-gtk messages in the past week.

Most are errors, repeated multiple times a second. Here's the output of the grep piped into tail:
