Another Linux lie: we have XMPP server

Genius is as genius does, always as a degenerate. Such is the Ignite OpenFire development "team" who know no difference between logging and tracing. Their logs are always trace files filled with stack traces that no one is interested in. After they've been repeatedly told not to dump traces on their admin users, by several of them. It must be pathological sadistic tendencies of FOSS developers that make them torture their users, who knows.

Dudes, I'll gladly pile on and tell you once again: if you consider the error normal, don't dump a stack trace into the log. If you do not consider it normal, then investigate and resolve it. By the sheer volume of socket_c2s-thread-16]: org.jivesoftware.openfire.nio.NettyConnection - Problem during connection close or cleanup I gather that it is normal operation of OpenFire to throw thousands of them in one day. But each is accompanied by gigantic stack trace:

And there is no way to turn this off. Due to this idiotic choice made by them, OpenFire logs grow to tens of MB in only a few days, wearing our SSDs and filling VM storage with useless trash. Only a genius would do nothing about this, for years, out of best intentions of course.

All of you, FOSS degenerates, come across as this: inconsiderate, sadistic savages. I already shred every resume that mentions FOSS experience. More of this is coming.
