+By default, \fB\*(PN\fR limits the rate at which certain messages can
+be logged.  When a message would appear more frequently than the
+limit, it is suppressed.  This saves disk space, makes logs easier to
+read, and speeds up execution, but occasionally troubleshooting
+requires more detail.  Therefore, \fBvlog/disable\-rate\-limit\fR
+allows rate limits to be disabled at the level of an individual log
+module.  Specify one or more module names, as displayed by the
+\fBvlog/list\fR command.  Specifying either no module names at all or
+the keyword \fBany\fR disables rate limits for every log module.

+The \fBvlog/enable\-rate\-limit\fR command, whose syntax is the same

+limit that was previously disabled.
