You can change the image format used by the log.

Switch it to high compression JPEG or something and they'll take up next to no space.

I have the visualiser switched off as well.
There are a few areas in my scripts where screen caps are occasionally useful. So I have my own code in there and a toggle to enable/disable caps during a run.
But then, I also use my own custom log file with WAY more descriptive text in it. That allows me to isolate problems down to a single test step (user driven keyword + data driven framework) which I can re-run in isolation easily enough. So screen caps aren't essential very often at all.
You could try isolating it down so that it's only enabled in areas you know you'll find it useful?

You can switch it on and off during runs ....
