Maximum Debug Messages

Any message

When the options set in system logging cause a message to be written to a log file

as a result of any of the options on this page being ticked will be written as a message of type DEBUG. The value entered here is

, the message has the type DEBUG. If several of these options are ticked for a large analysis run, PhixFlow can generate very large log files.

To limit the size of log files, enter a number to indicate the maximum number of

such

debug messages that can be written to the log file.

This helps prevent very large log files being produced if several of these options are left turned on by mistake before a large analysis run.
