Autoprobe logs are growing to huge sizes.

Issue/Introduction
Java Agent produces huge autoprobe log files, ranging into gigabytes in size.
Cause
Huge Autoprobe logs can be caused by dynamic instrumentation being triggering excessively, resulting in frequent re-instrumentation. (This also means quick growth of the autoprobe.log files which records the re-instrumentation.)
Environment
Java Agent, 9.7 and above.
Resolution
Simply disabling the autoprobe.log is not recommended, as the underlying re-instrumentation will continue. Instead for cases where this occurs, the following should be changed in the agent profile (IntroscopeAgent.profile):
introscope.autoprobe.dynamicinstrument.enabled=false
introscope.autoprobe.deepinheritance.enabled=false
introscope.agent.deep.entrypoint.enabled=false
The application should be restarted for these changes to take effect.
