The last time I checked, we guaranteed 90 days of logs regardless of size. This is subject to change, however. I don't know what size we will set, but like many of our other products, it'll likely start at a number we think is reasonable based on overall usage and trend upward.
Anything is possible with regards to billed features - we just can't give an ETA unless it's explicitly stated on the roadmap.
