Reduce size of minify.log file

  • We use W3 Total Cache to speed up a large website, and we minify the JS and HTML on the site. We’ve found that our minify.log file

    /wp-content/cache/log/000000/minify.log

    is 1.7 GB !

    This seems like much to much for a log file. Are we doing something wrong? Why would it grow to be that large?

    Are there changes to our settings that might help to reduce the size of this file?

    Are there any other ways to keep the size of this file smaller?

    (Under Minify > Advanced Settings, our Update External Files and Garbage Collection settings are both 86400. I don’t know if that effects the log file size, but thought i’d provide that information in case it is relevant.)

    Any advise appreciated!

  • Just turn off the debugging option for the Minify. Mine grew too hugely ….

    Hello, First of all, sorry for the late response and the issue you are having.

    When debugging is turned on, we log everything that is happening to allow for testing where something is going wrong, which results in a huge file if used in production environments.
    We recommend only using debugging options when you need it, like when you are having issues and need to know what is happening exactly. General Settings>Debug select Minify
    Please make sure to update W3TC to the latest version as a lot of fixes have been applied.
    Please give us a feedback if the issue is solved and we can close this topic.

    Best Regards,

    Marko
