Analyze Stack Trace behavior with nested multi-threaded logs

Log Analysis in IntelliJ IDEA
The Analyze Stack Trace feature simplifies debugging by converting raw log output into clickable source links. This functionality relies on the IDE's ability to identify the start and end of a stack trace within a larger text block.
Multi-threaded Log Constraints
In complex deployment scenarios, logs often contain interleaved output from multiple threads. When a single log file contains nested or overlapping stack traces from different execution contexts, the automatic detection mechanism may fail to isolate individual traces correctly.
Current behavior suggests that the tool may struggle to automatically distinguish where one trace ends and another begins in high-concurrency logs, often requiring the user to manually select the specific trace boundaries.
- How does IntelliJ IDEA handle the automatic detection of nested stack traces in multi-threaded log files?
- Is there a configuration to improve the precision of trace boundary detection for interleaved logs?
