1554587 - Switch from time-based to size-based rotation for moz-phab logs

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Conduit :: moz-phab, defect, P2)

Description

[:glob ✱]

At least one of our developers generates about 200MB of logs per day using moz-phab. Given our retention period of 7 days that's a lot of disk.

We should move to logging.handlers.RotatingFileHandler() with a maxBytes of 50MB and a backupCount of 5, bringing our disk usage to a maximum of 250MB.

We'll also need to add code to clean up old date-based files (e.g. moz-phab.log.2019-05-07)

Attachment: Bug 1554587 - Switch from time-based to size-based rotation for moz-phab logs; r=zalun

Our debug logs are very verbose, which has resulted in some developers
reporting ~200MB per day of logs, weighing in at 1.4GB in total.

Switch to size-based rotation, with a total cap of 250MB.
