1mb every few minutes is inconsequential - no impact on performance or disk space. You have logrotate to handle the disk space.
1gb every few minutes and you have a real problem to worry about in terms of both performance and disk space.

Hi
Thanks to several users on this list I have our cluster up and running. The databases look good as does performance.
However, logs are increasing about 1MB every few minutes.
Does everyone typically send all of local4 to a file or only filter out for example warning and above?
Thanks,
