It'd be nice / helpful / useful.
We're at the point now where syncing daily will exceed local storage
allocations soon with projected growth rates.
We could do more frequent log rotation / distribution, but given the
role and volume, real-time (or very close to it) updates would be
preferred, and workfactor is largely orthogonal.
If we need to queue, we could always have rsyslog (we're using it, not
syslog-ng) write locally and rotate those frequently. There's still the
risk of a hiccup between nginx and rsyslog, but we can keep an eye on
that via monit.
