I set the plugin to look only in subdir/logdir/build*log. I had no leading **/ !! (Is the plugin assuming one?)

I saw the java task for jenkins peg the CPU (only one executor configured).

I did an strace on the process and it is opening every file in the workspace, and not just the indicated sub-tree.

E.g. its looking in /view/view_name/vobs/** when I want it (as part of a job that has a wider workspace) to look only in /view/view_name/subdir/log_dir
