Request Description

Platforms can choose what type of information to include in log messages (such as file name, line number, and column number). Because many operations implicitly can panic in the code, this accumulates in a given binary to significantly impact size.

This issue tracks updating Patina platform integration documents to describe how to configure these options and tradeoffs when doing so.
