Description

The TRACE_FILE_LINES option specifies the maximum number of lines to write to the trace file.

A trace file is generated when the MESSAGE_LEVEL option is set to trace. The trace file will wrap around when the maximum number of lines has been reached and start writing trace entries after the trace header lines.

(The average size of a trace file line is 50 characters.)
