What I think would be a very nice addition to that list of two things is to be able to specify a customized filename for the log files. I'm unsure if this is even possible though. I currently pipe through "cronolog" to include the YEAR and MONTH numbers in the filenames. If this could be handled without piping out to another process, then it would reduce a lot of pipe process overhead (for each VirtualHost there are two "cronolog" processes, one for the CustomLog, and the other for the ErrorLog). An example of the filenames for log files for this month are "access.2011-03.log" and "errors.2011-03.log." If this feature is possible, then this module could also help to make ModPerl 2 a little bit more popular if other administrators are interested in reducing the number of piped processes.
