title: Effects of a 20GB error.log for Apache
body: <p>I found an error log file that is 20GB in terms of size! </p>
  
  <p>I wanted to know if it will be slow for Apache to write to this? </p>
  
  <p>I ask because the way I understand it is that Apache opens the error_log file upon start and writes to it, which shouldn't be that slow - Is this true?</p>
  
  <p>Or will this sort of file size reduce speed of logging errors?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks all</p>
