            Bug ID: 500299
           Summary: KGet floods the journald log with thousands of debug
                    messages

           Product: kget
           Version: 24.12.2

  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
KGet spams the journald log with an enormous number of identical debug messages
in the form of:
"Recalculate limits? false"
occasionally interrupted by: 
"My Downloads"
(the name of the currently used transfer group).

This messages provide no useful information and are frankly just annoying.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Start a download in KGet
2. Open KSystemLog to view the journald log
3. 

OBSERVED RESULT
KGet generates thousands of log messages.

EXPECTED RESULT
Limit the number of log entries to a sane amount.
Ideally provide the option to set the log level in the KGet settings.
