Hi , After starting kibana in my windows machine, I see continuous logging of kibana on console. For eg., if i keep kibana open for 2 hours(without doing any operation at all), i see continuous logging for these 2 hours which is exhausting i think for the machine. How to stop the continuous logging.

Hi,

Kibana and ES logs continuously in console. I am sure you can push logs to background process but I don't think it does any difference to machine states. cc @Marius_Dragomir any inputs?

Thanks,  
Bhavya

To suppress all logging output other than error messages add the following to your `kibana.yml`:

```auto
logging.quiet: true

```
