Not to log-file per se. To every file. I think that 2.2.X kernels 
have a 2 GB/file limit. (well, new kernels don't have this 
limitation, and althrough I'm not sure, I think 2.2.X has this 
limitation)

If you ever want to process it, too big means too long.

On the other hand, if you have lots of virtual sites, you'll bang in 
another limitations : a process can not open too many file 
descriptor. Don't remember either what's the limit, but I think it's 
256.

The best solution I think is to log to a single file, and have a 
daily script that cuts it into part.

But, well, it's what's supposed to happen with Cobalt's scripts ...

Hope that helps,

Fabrice.
