Thanks for your reply.

500 GBs sounds quite a lot. We have around 200 servers, and they're usually
not producing too much logging (most of our applications have their own
logging, and doens't rely on syslog). I was hoping there maybe was some sort
of formula defining the avarage number of GBs logging pr server pr year, or
something like that.
