My club setup comprises a DJM-A9 and two CDJ-3000s. I'm using HID with the CDJs and my computer is connected directly to the mixer via a high-quality USB cable that I bring with me at every gig.
The USB cables that connect the computer to the CDJs, however, are relatively cheap, long (I think ~3 or 5m each), without a ferite core, and they are mingled with power cables... Those two cables belong to the club, they're not mine.
After almost every gig at that place, my Serato log directory (_Serato_/Logs) gets populated with gigantic, multi-megabyte files containing repeating lines that look like this:

What's happening under the hood?
I think I had the same issue with the gear we had before the upgrade (DJM-900 and CDJ-2000NXS). The cable situation was identical. Also, this happens regardless of which Serato version I'm using.
