I was clearing out files from the old instance after upgrading a server and I noticed after deleting the worlds the plugins folder was still 7GB. Scanned through and it seems it is Autorank/logging that fills up.

Just checked on the instance currently in use and there are 38.47GB of log files from the last two weeks of running. The current file began two days ago and is over 8GB in size, and getting bigger! Running tail on the file shows it is repeatedly logging the same thing thousands and thousands of times a second:

I have now turned off logging so I think that's stopped the files, but I would guess this is not intended behaviour.

Running 4.5.1 I should add.

Looks like it's repeatedly grabbing time from the database, really quickly?
