Resizeable up to the available space selected when the instance was originally
created.

It should be possible to set up sizing of /var/log based on project.  I'll have
a look at that if that's the direction you want to go.

That's correct.  In perfect-puppet-land, doing that should be trivial, but I've
been led to understand that in the real world it's a big pain.

One might argue that the 'real problem' is unbounded log growth, and that beta
just displays the symptoms sooner than production.  But I don't know if the
issue really is unbounded growth or if growth is bounded properly but just
bounded outside the capacity of existing instances.
