Description

Some fields can be massive (e.g. NLRI in Update fields or MP-BGP attributes) and that can cause logging to be expensive.
It would be good to come up with some dynamic logging level and/or tracing (dtrace, most likely) support.

Research direction

Start by locating the logging and tracing paths for Update fields, especially NLRI and MP-BGP attributes. Define what dynamic logging levels or dtrace support should cover, then verify that massive fields no longer make logging unnecessarily expensive.
