`asb` log spam: "Communication error", "New connection established", "Lost connection to peer"

[icy-ux]

Describe the bug The asb log file is full of connection-established / lost-connection entries. This makes it hard to find the entries regarding ongoing swaps. The connection-related entries are not very useful for debugging purposes, anyway.

Lost/trapped Funds No

Suggested fix: make connection-related logging optional and opt-in, probably enabled by a command line argument or environment variable.

This seems to be resolved by switching to a private (locally hosted) electrs instance. I don't understand why it helped, but it did -- the log is now no longer full of these messages.

[icy-ux]

Never mind. The messages have resumed, using a local electrum server didn't help.

This is our backend (https://unstoppableswap.net/) retrieving the latest BidQuote from your server.

Thanks for clarifying. If the unstoppableswap.net backend can't make its queries in a more silent way, I would still love to see a way to turn the notifications off on my end.
