assuming you can't get rid of the cause of messages flooding the log file, could you prevent writing with a filter? After all, only filtering when reading would not prevent the unnecessary growth of log files.
you didn't say which messages, but in systemd 253 there's a new per-unit option LogFilterPatterns=.
* A new LogFilterPatterns= option has been added for units. It may be used to specify accept/deny regular expressions for log messages generated by the unit, that shall be enforced by systemd-journald. Rejected messages are neither stored in the journal nor forwarded. This option may be used to suppress noisy or uninteresting messages from units.
Hi, thank you. There are actually no messages that spam my journal. I just want to know just in case. Regards, Ralf
