[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asfarley:
When I open a project in Android Studio, the Android Monitor window immediately begins displaying a huge amount of text/logs. I don't know if this is really an issue but it seems like a lot of visual noise being generated by default.

Note: I am *not* launching/debugging the project when this happens. It happens right after I open the project, if my phone is connected through USB with debug enabled.

Does anyone else get the same effect?

Using Android Studio 2.3.2 with a Moto X Play phone on OSX. See below for an example snippet of the type of log messages I'm getting.
