Since my computer seems to bo down at around 200M (I've got some scripts that 
grind through ALL.TXT to pull out interesting data), I split ALL.TXT into 100M 
files on occasion:

Stop WSJT-X
split --numeric-suffixes=00 --line-bytes=100M --additional-suffix=.TXT ALL.TXT 
PART
then rename the last one back to ALL.TXT
And then in the future, do:
... --numeric-suffixes=XX ...

[This is in WSL under Win10, but my Good Friend Google tells me there are lots 
of Win10 options].

I seem to have racked up about 1.5G in *.TXT over the last year, so there's no 
reason not to archive it, you never know when you might need to rebuild your 
adi files or do some other data mining.
