RPC server: Long Log Messages

[gaia]

Feature Request

Summary

Syslog has trouble handling these long strings (see below). Not sure if they are even needed in logs, but it would surely be great to be able to suppress them, even if syslog gets adjusted to handle them (max message size), just to spare disk IO and reduce log size.

Problem Definition

https://paste2.org/xbEIvUhb

Acceptance criteria

• truncate the log output in the example above
  • decide if the txs raw bytes are useful in the log in the first place (most likely not useful)
    • if useful: keep a truncated version;
    • if not useful: remove the txs bytes entirely from the log output

Excellent feedback, thanks for logging the issue @gaia !

Will track this under #54, looks like a relatively low-hanging fruit.

What's a good maximum log length here?
