bug: Capacitor has so many console messages

[Sampath-Lokuge]

Hi,

Why Capacitor has so many console messages? It directly affects the performance of the native build. i.e. poor performance. So it is very bad and against the clean code pattern and practices too. I hope you'll remove all of those in the future version.

Ionic:

Ionic CLI : 6.11.11 (C:\Users\Sampath\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules@ionic\cli)
Ionic Framework : @ionic/angular 5.3.3
@angular-devkit/build-angular : 0.1001.2
@angular-devkit/schematics : 10.0.8
@angular/cli : 10.1.2
@ionic/angular-toolkit : 2.3.3

Capacitor:

Capacitor CLI : 2.4.1
@capacitor/core : 2.4.1

Utility:

cordova-res : 0.14.0
native-run : 1.2.1

System:

NodeJS : v12.13.1 (C:\Program Files\nodejs\node.exe)
npm : 6.12.1
OS : Windows 10

There's "hideLogs" boolean key for capacitor.config.json

Do we know if hideLogs is automatically disabled in release builds or is it just used in debug builds?

Looking at the source code I did not find evidence of it being disabled in release builds.

Yes, that is not working.
