Morning,
You guys are great!   I love the responsiveness.  So much better than we get from our paid vendor.

The Dba is setting log to 200meg.  So, yes it's still a lot to download.

I'd like to see a function that would disable the log download.  Most of the time I'm looking it's to investigate
queriesthat are poorly performing.  
The log feature is currently interfering with this use.

Thanks
doug

Well, even if he used a 100MB, which is quite less, this is still a lot
to download. I agree with Douglas that we should at least add an option
to control this behaviour.
