sometimes when i work on android in eclipse the logcat output just seems to output the last line of messages and discards everything before.
this usually happens after 30mins of work but i cant find a concrete way to repro it.
any hints? thanks!

Verbose: Show all log messages (the default). Debug: Show debug log messages that are useful during development only, as well as the message levels lower in this list. Info: Show expected log messages for regular usage, as well as the message levels lower in this list.
Go to the File option > click on “INVALIDATE CACHES/RESTART” then a dialog box will pop up, Select the “INVALIDATE CACHES/RESTART” button. This will automatically restart and build the index of android studio.
As soon as app considered 'chatty' by logcat (more than 5 lines per second), logs of your app will be collapsed. You can avoid this behaviour by whitelisting your app for logcat: adb logcat -P '<pid or uid of your app>'
Logcat is a command-line tool that dumps a log of system messages, including stack traces when the device throws an error and messages that you have written from your app with the Log class. This page is about the command-line logcat tool, but you can also view log messages from the Logcat window in Android Studio.
The eclipse DDMS buffer is unnecessarily small. You can click the clear log button and it will start showing the log again. I'm not sure if there's a way to increase the buffer or not. I always look at the logcat in the terminal. Here's a really good python script that adds color to the output.
