Oleg, you should have mentioned that Chris had a "variable" log size patch for 
"ages" but he only haven't had enough time for polishing it.

I for myself were very excited when we get this in some day 'cause than I have 
some little more space on my "boot" partition left or I can shrink it 
finally.

Nobody knows for sure when we'll see the "outstanding" AA vm-fixes and the
