I mentioned the size, about 60 gigabytes. I think it filled up my disk in half 
an hour or so, before I figured out who the culprit was.
Truncating on startup didn't prevent anything, it just grows way too fast and 
there's nothing to prevent that, unlike most logs which truncate periodically. 
Given how bad the failure mode is (the machine gets slow, it's hard to diagnose 
where the missing space is), and the fact that the log is not useful outside of 
specific steps taken to characterise a bug, this log should not be enabled 
without user action.
