See -help set tracedepth-. It might take a while, but you should be able to set things to either exactly what you want, or at least get very close.

I saw a post on this from 2009 and the only solution then was to save the trace to a log. This seems like a tedious and time consuming way to simply find out where an error occurred, follow the execution progress of a loop, and/or see what output goes with what commands.
