To disable showlog, on my Kindle 3.0.3 I replaced:

with:
OUTFILE=/dev/null
(around line 156)

and:
OUTFILE="$1"
with:
OUTFILE=/dev/null
(around line 178)

Disabling the whole script with a call to "exit" near the top would achieve the same effect.
OK, thanks for the advise.
I'll be messing around with the showlog file and check if the var/log/message file doesn't grow out of proportions
