Android App: Huge Log files eating up 300+MB, Debug mode is probably enabled resulting in huge log files

Hi guys,

Please check as it looks like Debug mode is enabled by default in your app and logs files are being generated taking up huge amounts of space. I am using Keybase 1.0.8.

In particular, I noticed recently that my phone complained of low free space and pointed me to the Keybase app taking up almost 500 MB! After checking with root-browser, I noticed that there are 3 huge files in /data/data/io.keybase.ossifrage/files/

The culprits are 3 log files, named:

service.log (51MB and rising, cant open it, permission denied)

service.log-20171024T174619Z-20171024T214349Z (128MB, 570K lines like the following:

_2017-10-20T23:39:12.922236Z ▶ [DEBU keybase login_state.go:1008] 1d2d * LoginState account request complete: acctReq GetUID...........
2017-10-20T23:39:12.922328Z ▶ [DEBU keybase login_state.go:968] 1d2e - acctHandle done:............

service.log-20171113T154006Z-20171113T154046Z (128MB)
(same as above)

Start by inspecting the Android app's files directory at /data/data/io.keybase.ossifrage/files/ and the reported service.log files from Keybase 1.0.8. Confirm what produces the logs and whether debug-level output is enabled by default; done means the app no longer creates unbounded log files that consume hundreds of megabytes.
