Symptoms

Game generates nearly 15Mb of logging data in /tmp/dumps/user_stdout.txt in about 1 minute of game time. Yes, I know this file is cleared on reboot, but it s woefully excessive.

Having this same issue on my HP laptop running Linux Mint 19.3 MATE. I only play Stardew Valley and occasionally remote-play Elite Dangerous on this machine as I have a dedicated Windows 10 gaming desktop PC downstairs (from which I often stream Elite).

Twice now I've gotten a 'low disk space warning' error on my laptop to find out it is the /tmp/dumps/user_stdout.txt file. I have a 500GB hard drive and about 240GB of it is free, but when I checked the aforementioned user_stdout.txt file it was taking up 200GB of space and killing my hard drive!!!

Nothing extracted yet.
