I'd solve that problem by (for these sites, which I'd have to presume
are low-$, low-volume sites, or you couldn't put that many of them on a
RaQ at all) just pointing the logging to one file (not the same one the
RaQ uses) and NOT parsing it into separate files for the users at any
time.

Although if you did want to parse it into separate files for the users
(once a day or so), you could do that without using too many file
descriptors, by just parsing out a few domains at a time and making
multiple passes.
