You keep mentioning this. But what is the problem? "More logs" is too
subjective to quality as a concern/problem.

In October, svn.apache.org generated about 900M of logs(*). Is that a
problem? I wouldn't think so. At that rate, a simple 1T drive could
hold over 83 years of logs. Are there installations busier than
svn.a.o? Sure. Can they afford 1T drives? If they're running at that
rate, then you bet.

(*) those logs are likely under-sized, as the majority of requests are
using neon and subkit rather than serf. adjust that 83 *years*
accordingly.
