    • Environment:
      We run Jenkins using the official docker image version 2.46.2, docker version 17.03.1-ce, Amazon EC2 plugin 1.36, Ubuntu 14.04, Oracle java version 1.8.0_131 for the slave.jar process

      I have just been investigating a problem in our jenkins setup that I think might be related to JENKINS-25218. We're using the EC2 plugin and running builds that generate quite large logs (230 MB). At some point during the build, the master loses track of the log and just starts logging the same block of text from the log over and over as long as I let it. The build completes successfully on the slave and nothing bad appears in the Node log in the jenkins UI. But the master continues to fill up the filesystem with the same repeated text forever. I changed the build to log much less and now this isn't happening. We're running 2.46.2. Could this potentially be one of the edge cases?
