Bug Description
Users are experiencing very large log files (>20GB). AIUI, this is due at least in part to the verbosity level we have set for debugging reasons.
While that level helps us, it's disrespectful of users disk space. Also, the plan to turn down the verbosity level later doesn't really work because that will still allow logs to grow unbounded over time.
I think we need to come up with a better solution - i.e,. bound the max size of a log file, overwrite it each day, etc?
