This happens for me for logs much smaller than 1GB.

@padraiglennon are you also on 4.16?

@xavier8854 - The feature should still be in place. Do you have a more specific error message or stack trace you can post?

[xavier8854]

No message at all, log keeps charging until Rundeck crashes. I'll try to crash a qualification env to provide the stack trace

The whale of logs message happens also with small logs (3-4MB), with a large number of lines. Still not fixed in 4.17.0.

Hi @xavier8854 I have tested using a huge log on 5.0

Could you test in a non-prod env?

Also confirming issue in 4.16.0 with logs around 125MB in size. @fdevans @MegaDrive68k is there a future 4.x release in which this might be fixed? I can't migrate to any higher version until #8574 is fixed.
