Dec 26, 2020 at 0:50 comment added bof To see that "the set of $n$ for which that holds can be arbitrarily sparse" consider a partition of $\omega$ into intervals $I_1\lt I_2\lt\cdots$ of rapidly increasing length and let $f(\{x,y\})=i\in\{0,1,2\}$ if $x,y\in I_{3m+i}$.
Dec 26, 2020 at 0:36 comment added bof @PéterKomjáth The set can't possibly contain "at least $c\log n$ elements below $n$" for all $n$. What is the correct statement? Is it something like "at least $c\log n$ elements below $n$ for infinitely many $n$"? But the set of $n$ for which that holds can be arbitrarily sparse?
Dec 24, 2020 at 8:20 comment added Péter Komjáth It is worth mentioning the following result of Erdos and Galvin: in a coloring $f:[\omega]^2\to\{0,1,2\}$ there is an infinite set containing at least $c\log n$ elements below $n$ and spanning only 2 colors. Erdos, Galvin: Some Ramsey type theorems, Disc. Math., 87(1991), 261-269.
