Description mclaassen 2009-08-17 21:21:47 UTC 
I put this in my netbeans.conf:
-J-D.level=1

The made a repeating pattern of:
FINE [org.openide.util.RequestProcessor]: Null task for item org.openide.util.RequestProcessor$Item
FINE [org.openide.util.RequestProcessor]: notifyRunning: RequestProcessor.Task [Logging Flush, 1] for task
org.netbeans.core.startup.TopLogging$NonClose@872380

The continues, making the IDE unusable and the log files keep growing.  It doesn't take too long for them to get to
around 1Gb in size.  Whatever information is in the log file at that point is hard to find because of all the noise.

Reassigning for further evaluation. Jardo, could you please have a look at it? Thanks.
Comment 2 Jaroslav Tulach 2009-09-01 12:35:58 UTC 
Don't do this, if it does not work.
Comment 3 Jaroslav Tulach 2009-09-18 14:52:52 UTC 
I have not seen any infinity. Instead the whole system deadlocked for me. Improved by core-main#ed14775d069c
