if you end up doing much searching through your logs you can end up eating

I've found that if you utilize, for instance, syslog-ng, you can split
up the log files based on whatever (device type, network, etc.).
Searching those smaller files is a lot less CPU intensive.
true, but I found that syslog-ng was far less effective at the more
important job of receiving syslog messages from the wire and writing them
to disk
