If some client IS hammering the system like this, this is *exactly*  
why you want these sort of requests to be logged -- so you can figure  
out how to fix the issue (or at least prevent that client from its  
broken behavior).

Otherwise, you could theoretically have 1000's of clients hammering  
your server improperly, and you'll be scratching your head why your  
server is performing so slowly and there is nothing in the logs to  
explain it.
