I'm trying to optimize my c++ program. It uses caffe.
When executing my program, caffe outputs around 1GB (!) of info logs every 15 mins. I suspect this impacts efficiency significantly. But I haven't found how to turn logging off. In this question someone suggested setting FLAGS_v manually.
With the following code I can disable VLOG logs by level, but LOG(x) logs are unaffected.
First lines in main():
FLAGS_v = 1; //disables vlog(2), vlog(3), vlog(4)
VLOG(0) << "Verbose 0";
VLOG(1) << "Verbose 1";
VLOG(2) << "Verbose 2";
VLOG(3) << "Verbose 3";
VLOG(4) << "Verbose 4";
LOG(INFO) << "LOG(INFO)";
LOG(WARNING) << "LOG(WARNING)";
LOG(ERROR) << "LOG(ERROR)";
Output:
WARNING: Logging before InitGoogleLogging() is written to STDERR
I0523 19:06:51.484634 14115 main.cpp:381] Verbose 0
I0523 19:06:51.484699 14115 main.cpp:382] Verbose 1

E0523 19:06:51.484715 14115 main.cpp:388] LOG(ERROR)
Is there another flag I'm unaware of? I'm thinking of commenting every LOG(INFO) line out, but I would like a more elegant solution. (I'd prefer a c++ solution over a command line flag solution).
This works in C++ source code.
google::InitGoogleLogging("XXX");
google::SetCommandLineOption("GLOG_minloglevel", "2");
