Description (last modified by Raymond Wagner)

Just like in ticket #8244 and ticket #8367, ticket #9364 describes the log file being filled up with repeated logs. This most recent is even more aggressive than what I described in the first bug... around 32 entries per millisecond.

Is there any way that the logging function, upon receiving the same message as the previous message, could wait at least a second, if not more, to log an identical message to prevent hyperactive messages like this one from filling up logs in record time?

In under two hours, it has generated 20 GB of logs.

Dupe, more or less, of #6729 (since the alternative to this is closing this FRWOP)
