If you check the unfiltered logs you will see that many applications post many messages to the log system.

You should however make sure not to post any sensitive information as other applications can read the logs.

I see that the app is runnig slower with LOG shown in the IDE (even without debugging).
I know that all this printing in the IDE tooks time, but does LOG() without a connected IDE slow down the execution ?
I do load here 1000 lines CSV files with LOG() the keys to debug it.

Maybe remove or REM excessive logging.. You need to make the call yourself.

Just to be clear - the App isn't generated in debug as well is it?

No I have compiled it with "Release" and it starts without debugger, but it shows the LOG output.

After thinking about it, IF other apps can read the log, it is stored and I have to remove it.

Yes, other Apps can read the log.

Not exactly. Starting from Android 4.1 other apps cannot read your app logs. The logs are only visible through ADB (usb debugging).

Erel, is this also the case for rooted devices?
