I just log to tmpfs (essentially ramdisk) and it is not an issue for me.

Add this to your /etc/fstab and reboot

#---- put logs and tmp dirs in ramdisk ---
tmpfs           /tmp            tmpfs   
defaults,nosuid,mode=0755,nodev,noatime   0       0
tmpfs           /var/log        tmpfs   
defaults,nosuid,mode=0755,nodev,noatime   0       0
tmpfs           /var/tmp        tmpfs   
defaults,nosuid,mode=0755,nodev,noatime   0       0
#---------------------------------------------

Note that the result here is that you will lose 'all' logs when you reboot, 
but the upside is it never writes to SD card.  In this configuration your 
pi SD is close to read-only.
