Of course, you could also turn on runtime log rendering of the daemon log - if 
you're rendering it every day, why not render it simultaneously? Details at the 
link below:

(I've had a few people say they're worried about the performance or capacity 
implications of doing this - if the system is that borderline on capacity or 
performance, there's bigger issues at hand.)

Cheers,
Preston.
