The problem was that one of the parameters was modified in a function and the code was designed not to have an effect on that modified parameter. Now that the parameter is a descriptor and any modifications to it are non-volatile, the size of the data could be unnecessarily expanded. Remove the extra space added if a timestamp was added and the event went across the page.
