it's a general trade-off between logging and being able to recognize problems
and silence and the absence of such opportunity. The general problem can
be solved by rate limiting error messages, which in turn requires more state
which opens another DoS path etc.
Would those CPU cycles necessary to enhance the currrent message be critical?
