The best way of debugging in wordpress s to use the debug.log. But if you leave debug running for long periods that log can grow MASSIVELY. This can slow your site down.
This plugin uses the wordpress cron jobs to empty the debug log once it grows beyond a certain size.
NOTE this plugin relies on wordpress cron. If that is not working this plugin will not work. But then you will also have bigger problems!
