Is it possible to have the "Picked up" lines filtered out so that it doesn't interfere with our programs? I feel this would really clean up workspaces and it shouldn't really be that hard to do I think.

Treehouse TeacherIt's an unfortunate bug that was still not fixed in Java 9. We are giving specific memory to each workspace, and when you do that, the debugging statement is included.
I agree that it shouldn't be hard, but at the moment, it's how it works. Sorry :( I really wish it wasn't there too! But I know that you appreciate that extra memory more than you know....it was pretty slow before we fixed it.

4,254 PointsSorry, I wrote this pretty quick and it most likely only applies to the Java workspaces.
But when you run Java commands through the console, it says "Picked Up" then some java runtime arguments (specifically about allocating RAM to the runtime). It used to just run your program without outputting any text to the console that you didn't purposely output.
