Logs from routing

[jbfp]

When using the Microsoft.Framework.Logging.ILoggerFactory and DI, is it possible to get MVC routing to be a little more quiet? I use LogLevel.Information quite a bit myself, but so does MVC routing apparently.
Specifically the lines where it logs (at level 'Information') when it matches a route:

Mvc/src/Microsoft.AspNet.Mvc.Core/Routing/InnerAttributeRoute.cs

Lines 136 to 139 in 5632a33

	_logger.LogInformation(
	"Request successfully matched the route with name '{RouteName}' and template '{RouteTemplate}'.",
	matchingEntry.RouteName,
	matchingEntry.RouteTemplate);

Perhaps this log is more 'verbose' than 'information'?

Are you using beta5?

Yep, all packages are beta5 on VS2015

We recently updated that log levels of most log events so that the Information level should be very quiet - at most a few log entries per "normal" request.

Can you try with the latest build? I took a quick look and the only LogInformation that I saw was the one you pointed out. We're contemplating removing even that one, but we're not sure if we want to remove all the Information logs from the request...

The latest builds are from the aspnetvnext MyGet feed, which is the "dev" branch, right? The dev branch still has that one specific Information log and it didn't make a difference in the log amount. It's not a big deal when it's just me testing, but I made the mistake of using 'wrk' (http load testing tool) with logging on and, well, the logs now tell me that MVC did in fact find the correct route a couple thousand times 😉

Yes, the dev branch is the most recent code and has that one Information log. Do you feel that even just that one log is too noisy? Most log systems have ways of filtering out events - all the Microsoft ones have event names that start with Microsoft... if you want to filter them all out.
