It may matter quite a bit, actually. I use metalog on my
server/desktop and syslog-ng on my laptop. metalog, by default,
rotates logs fairly aggressively. It the log file hits 1MB (by the
gentoo default setting) it gets rotated with a new datestamp. 

This computer has been running gentoo for close to 7 years now and I've 
never once need to clearn out log files processed by metalog (I do have 
to clean out elogs and apache logs [when I had a web server running] 
every once in a while). 

The one time I ran into kernel trouble on my laptop, however, boy, was
I glad I had /var on a separate partition.
