The beta release comes with mostly trace level logging. Is this
recommended? I notice our cluster produce way too many logs. I set all the
level to info currently.

Yes, the kafka-request log logs every request (in TRACE). It's mostly for
debugging purpose. Other than that, there is no harm to turn it off.

nah. We just changed it to INFO and will monitor the log. We have GBs of logs when it was at trace level. the kafka-request log was going crazy.

We run at info too except when debugging stuff. Are you saying that info is
