We use rsyslog, with a central logging server whenever the app is installed
on more than one machine. The interesting bits of that config are here:

logrotate can (and automatically does, on Ubuntu) SIGHUP the rsyslog
process, without losing any logged lines. For a busy app, though, logrotate
`daily` isn't enough, and can still use up 10s of GBs. logrotate lets you
set max file size limits with `size 200M` in the config file.
