Issue Description

I am experiencing a problem with extremely huge output size of extension log.
Path: /Users/piotrblazejewicz/.vscode-insiders/extensions/ms-vscode.powershell-0.11.0/logs/1492023659-6b4269a7-46c9-4e07-8b88-f619373de0aa1492023335791
Size: 19 202 038 517 bytes (19,2 GB on disk)

I've reviewed released for 0.12.* and didn't spot info about possible fix.

Thanks!

Wow! How long has this session been running? Do you have Verbose logging turned on?

[peterblazejewicz]

I don't know. I'm using PowerShell on OS X from time-to-time (rather sporadic use to be honest). I do use VSCode all the time on OS X though. Won't be able to provide more info from this log as installing new version of extension clears that directory (I've just learned this after upgrading now to 0.12.*)

@peterblazejewicz is this still the case with newest version? Can you check and close or update?

[peterblazejewicz]

@PrzemyslawKlys let me check this out (still using VSCode Insider bits and regular one on Mac OS)
