Rotation happens in-line, i.e. each time before we are about to write an entry we check if rotation is necessary and execute it. This should make things a lot more robust, as this fixes a common issue with syslog where a lot of data generated in bursts could flood the fs until a much later time-based rotation took place. This time window goes away with the journal. > How can you configure how much log data is kept and for how long? Rotation is strictly bound to disk size and space. There's an upper limit on how much journald will consume, and a lower limit on how much journald will always leave free. See SystemMaxUse= resp. SystemKeepFree= in journald.conf(5).
