Parent article: The Journal - a proposed syslog replacement

It is said to ratelimit the logging speed if it starts to run out of disk space (but ratelimit based on what criteria?), and to rotate and purge the logs when the alternative is running out of space (but what entries will be purged?). These changes ought to solve the problem to a degree, and I am hoping sufficient intelligence is applied to make the best possible effort in these adversarial conditions.
