 Currently, GetTor is keeping all its logfiles around, since the beginning
 of mankind -- in the blind assumption that metrics is going to need them
 all to keep the shiny nice GetTor graphs the way they are.

 I'd like to clean that up a bit in the way that metrics just needs the
 latest N days of history, where N is a value between one and thirty days
 maybe. (One day of history necessary would be best, of course)

 Maybe karsten can clear up whether this actually needs change in the
 metrics code.
