Hi,

I deployed kong ingress controller on eks, but how can I disable these logs from the proxy(kong) container?

I got these logs by using this command:

`k -n kong logs ingress-kong-2333233244-923233 proxy`.

Set env var `KONG_PROXY_ACCESS_LOG` to `/dev/null`.

Thanks @hbagdi  
I also notice there’re too much logs like in kong ingress controller.

`kong.go:68] no configuration change, skipping sync to Kong`

Is there also any way to disable that?
