There's 3 per build (src,i686,x64) and they do get pretty big, just
look at the size of a kernel, qt or libreoffice build.
Are they at least stored compressed?
As such logs are highly repetitive, they're ideal for compression. I
tried a kernel build.log with bzip2, and it went from 3.9M to 211K. And
qt is better, from 20M to 294k!
