I get about a 100,000 lines of this anytime I scan a library:

Any idea?

Can I set Plex Log Level to “error”?

Ignore those. You’re seeing in-process development work.

If you’ve turned off all the logging options, that’s the best you can do.

And adding here:

The old Python based Legacy system is for unknown reason hard coded to debug level, and has always been like that.

All I can suggest is that you upgrade to the newer agents, but do note, that it’ll break with any 3.Party plugins running under those legacy primary agents
