Is there a way to remove "Last message repeated x times" from logs?
On BSD systems, syslogd has -c option, you could start syslogd -cc to disable this feature.
On linux (checked on Debian), man syslogd lists no such option.
It would seem that there is no way to turn it off under linux:

Control repeat message filtering using $RepeatedMsgReduction in /etc/rsyslog.conf
(it's on
by default on Ubuntu systems):
# Filter duplicated messages
$RepeatedMsgReduction on

On RedHat-family distros, or distros using rsyslogd, you add -e
to SYSLOGD_OPTIONS
in /etc/sysconfig/rsyslog
.
Then restart the rsyslog
service.
On Ubuntu, you can add -e to RSYSLOGD_OPTIONS in /etc/default/rsyslog and "restart rsyslog". It's not documented in the man page, but it works.
