We take a different approach here: we have a nightly cron job that moves older logs to a Zip archive, leaving the last couple of days in case we want to inspect recent messages without unpacking. You can combine approaches: let Log4J compress the logs at rotation and later a cron job simply stores them in an archive or whatever. I've done that with another product. -- Mark H.
