I may be misreading that diff, but it seems that's specific to the master/slave logs, rather than the 'stdout/stderr' logs that you see in a task sandbox.
I hope I'm wrong as we have similar issues - especially with apps deployed with tracing etc. on that merrily fill up /var/mesos on a slave, kill it, get deployed to another slave, kill that, etc... our plan is to log all tasks remotely to a fluentd or logstash agent on each slave.
