systemd error "File passed too large. Ignoring." How do I fix this?

Hi, i've noticed that my dmesg is cluttured up with many instances of this: "systemd-journald[132]: File passed too large. Ignoring." usually every few minutes, which also appears on the console and disrupts what i'm working on. Is there anyway to get rid of this, and/or find the offending process that's causing it? It doesn't appear in the journalctl logs, only in dmesg, and on the console.

Same thing here. I usually see it when logging out and back in, right before KDM starts up.

The same thing is happening with me, sometimes, after my last week update.

It happens to me when I kill hanged chromium processes (which seem to be present even if the browser is closed).
