That's in the contrary to my experience. Logs contain a lot of noise and unnecessary information, especially Java, hence best is to prepare them before feeding them to LLM. Not speaking about wasted tokens too...

LLMs are better now at pulling the context (as opposed to feeding everything you can inside the prompt). So you can expose enough query primitives to the LLM so it's able to filter out the noise.

I don't think implementing filtering on log ingestion is the right approach, because you don't know what is noise at this stage. We spent more time on thinking about the schema and indexes to make sure complex queries perform at scale.
