Excessive logging with ping
I use node-red to monitor the availability of my IoT / other devices by pinging them every 20seconds. Although this is probably not the ideal method it works for me but unfortunately it generates excessive amount of log messages like this.
15 Jun 15:35:21 - [info] [ping:5c31503383df695d-1683c145933c6c70] ping - Host '192.168.x.x' process timeout - sending SIGINT
I would like to make an argument that this should not be a info-level message, but rather debug.
That message only gets raised if the device doesn't respond (in the timeout period + 1 second) which feels like a valid thing to log as it is a failure case.

Please discuss suggested features or requests for changes in behaviour on the Node-RED Discourse Forum first, then it can be discussed by more than just the core development team.
p.s. we will move this issue to the right repo for this node (https://github.com/node-red/node-red-node
