How much disk space do WattPlot log files use?
We put a lot of effort into compressing the information that WattPlot stores. Both the text logs and the data logs are very small for the amount of data that they store. There are two things that will ultimately determine their size: (1) You have a lot of choice about what specific data you choose to log or ignore; and (2) since the logs focus on recording changes rather than regular states, systems that experience more fluctuations will log more data. Most plot logs will be around 80-100 KB per device (FX or MX) for a full day of per second data sampling. General logs with all options turned on might be about 3-5 KB per day. The Alert logs should be much smaller!
