Neovim creating massive log file

For the second time in the last few days, neovim seems to have created a massive log in the .cache/nvim/log file.

Last time it was around 105 gigs and this time it’s 92 gigs and it’s filled with logs you can see in the file. I didn’t scroll all the way through since it’s a very large file but from what I did see from scrolling it was only the lines visible in the picture.

Does someone know what the logs mean?

I didn’t want to open an issue since I don’t think this can be easily reproduced. Let me know if I should or if there are any steps I can take to help identify the problem.

I’m running the nightly version that I build from source.

NVIM v0.7.0-dev+905-gfcf5dd34f
Build type: Debug
LuaJIT 2.1.0-beta3
Terminal: alacritty
OS: Ubuntu: 20.04

Why are you running a debug build? Use a release build with debug info

make distclean && make CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo install

Honestly, I have no idea. I set it up a long time ago and I guess changed it down the road for some reason.

Thanks for the help.
