Please consider elmininating the single log file per
service instance in favor of a date/time-named log file,
similar to other long running (uptime is good) services,
like IIS and Apache.

A large number of builds with frequent checking results
in a huge volume of log entries, it would be extremely
useful to IIS-style log roll over for purposes of archival
(or just clean up), at a daily minimum, but configurable
down to an hour or so would nice to have.

    Same issue as another RFE.
    [ 775692 ] Purge oversized log files
    Currently Draco doesnt purge oversized log files. This
    means they can (and certainly do) get into the
    hundreds of megabytes in size. If logs need to be kepy
    for policy reasons, then the oversized log can be
    renamed, and then a new log started. In essence the
    feature is :

    1. Allow user to specify maximum log file size.
    2. Give the option to archive an oversized log.
