:I understand that it only prints once a second. However, it is still
:noise in my log files. Under active attack, I get 3600 of these in an
:hour, which makes my job of filtering through the messages much
:harder. I should have been more precise.

Look, it scales by degrees. If you are getting attacked sufficiently
you will get a lot of log messages to go with it, but at that point you
have more things to worry about then an extra few thousand lines of log
files! Trying to scale down the log messages which aren't harming the
machine due to a scaled-up attack is a waste of time.
