Whenever I run preflight on a system, it looks like the entire preflight dump is written to the esp.log.

Here's an example:

This might present an issue if a user (or multiple users) leaves their browser tab on system preflight overnight (as there is an auto refresh option on by default) on a bigger system and this could use up disk space quickly.
