I'm very interested in the answer to this question. I did not realize there was a hard limit on the amount of logs that journald can support. I have a project where we need to indefinitely store logs being produced at a rate of many Mb per day. A 4Gb limit would definitely be problematic. Is there actually a hard limit? Why? Can it be circumvented? Thank you very much for the information. jamie.
