As with most partitioning schemes, this very much depends on your
requirements. For a desktop/workstation type situation probably 200MB
would be plenty. For a general web/mail/ssh/etc. server as might be run
at home, maybe 500MB would be a better size. In a situation where you
have a central log store with several machines writing their logs there,
you'll need a lot more.

Cheers,
