Title:
  Logging of endless attempts of failed scheduled updates causes session
  crash

Status in unattended-upgrades package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  After a few hours of working Ubuntu decided to make an update when I
  have no internet connection. I have 109 000 lines in today's log as a
  result: most of them are very long list of web resources. My SSD tried
  to write log as fast as it can, without a big success - session crash
  happened after 24GB of RAM and 17GB of swap were exhausted. There are
  thousands of VERY long lines EACH SECOND. My log folder reached 5GB...

  Conclusion: Add intervals between failed attempts. Otherwise LOGGING
  will crush sessions.

  An example of one such line: 2025-09-07T08:50:32.711698+03:00
