Cleanup
Vieter stores the logs of every single package build. While this is great for debugging why builds fail, it also causes an active or long-running Vieter instance to accumulate thousands of logs.
To combat this, a log removal daemon can be enabled that periodically removes
old build logs. By starting your server with the max_log_age variable (see
Configuration), a daemon will get enabled that
periodically removes logs older than this setting. By default, this will happen
every day at midnight, but this behavior can be changed using the
log_removal_schedule variable.

Note
The daemon will always run a removal of logs on startup. Therefore, it's
possible the daemon will be very active when first enabling this setting.
After the initial surge of logs to remove, it'll calm down again.
