Well I can see IO resources as being scarse but how scarse are we really
talking? [There comes a point where cutting down the size of an image isn't
going to help a bit because it takes up the same number of sectors on a
disk whether its X Mb or Y Mb.

So if I am going to spin up a lot of boxes.. I am going to want those logs
not on one box but transmitted to a central location. Does journald have
remote logging capabilities (will it?)

As it is, I don't have a problem with it not being in minimal but being in
the @standard setting.
