Explanation

The splunk_instrumentation.log file is the least helpful in troubleshooting a crash, because it contains information about the Splunk Instrumentation feature, which collects and sends usage data to Splunk Inc. for product improvement purposes. This file does not contain any information about the Splunk processes, errors, or crashes.
