See Dave Jones' livejournal:

    Or that audit is a resource hungry pig (Well, ok, this isn't
    news) ... Given that most users don't actually give a **** about
    audit, this is incredibly wasteful. Thankfully it's going to be
    turned off for FC5 final. (Perhaps then my /var/log/audit won't take
    up a large percentage of my /var partition either).

Hope this helps,

James.
