Jonathan, I don't know what log4J does as a default but the definition of a max rollover file-size makes sense.
in your case: log4j.appender.geoserverlogfile=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender log4j.appender.geoserverlogfile.MaxBackupIndex=3 *log4j.appender.geoserverlogfile.MaxFileSize=10000KB* Ceki Gülcü, who was the main author has been careful not to spread too much information about the log4j configuration, but -fair enough - has written a slim book in the O'Reilly series, which is worth buying. If mine hadn't gone walkabout I probably could have told you the default.
