Seems the file is not being pared or cycled by the client (ie removing log entries older than ___ or having x number of log files, each contain a day of logs). Removing this file has the client starting up far quicker (10-15 seconds as opposed to 2-3 minutes of loading). Though this could be biased scapegoating. This thread has been automatically archived.

The client starting up quicker is incidental and nothing to do with the size of the file, many people have tried it and found out that it makes no diffrence Ancestral Bond. It's a thing that does stuff. -Vipermagi He who controls the pants controls the galaxy. - Rick & Morty S3E1	Posted by lagwin1980#2224 on Feb 16, 2016, 3:16:53 PM Quote this Post
That file never purges so it will keep growing until you delete it. I do that periodically. It does seem to make the game load faster, lagwin. I think it's more than coincidence.
