Does anyone know of a way to zip log files automatically and copy them to an archive? I'm thinking that an Appender that did this would be cool.

We've got an installation with a number of app servers that generate huge logs at very high speed. If we could zip a log whenever it rolled over, and then have all the servers move the zipped files to a common location (renaming the files appropriately), it would solve a big maintenance headache.

I'm thinking something that works like AsyncAppender would be a good idea, because then the system wouldn't need to pause to handle the zipping task. A separate low-priority thread could do it.

Does anything like this exist now?
