I am receiving this message. I noticed that my syslog file is being spammed with it, and I am not sure why they are being produced, and not sure how to stop them. It looks like it is json format of localhost statistics, like memory usage, cpu usage, etc.

```auto
INFO [monitoring] log/log.go:145 Non-zero metrics in the last 30s ... {"monitoring": {"metrics": {"beat":{"cgroup":{"memory":{"mem":{"usage":{"bytes":94208}}}},"cpu":{"system":

```

I would appreciate any insight that can be shared into these messages.

What OS are you on, what version of Filebeat and how did you install it?

I am running Ubuntu 20.04.1. I am running filebeat 7.10.0. I believe I did an "apt install filebeat".
