# Misc Tips/Tricks
### Limit the size of your Rails Test/Dev Logs
https://www.stormconsultancy.co.uk/blog/development/tips-tricks/limit-the-size-of-your-rails-test-and-development-logs/
```
In your config/environments/test.rb and development.rb just add the line:

config.logger = Logger.new(config.paths['log'].first, 1, 50 * 1024 * 1024)

and your log files will never grow bigger than 50Mb. You can change the size to your own preference. The ‘1’ in the second parameter means that 1 historic log file will be kept, so you’ll have up to 100Mb of logs – the current log and the previous chunk of 50Mb.

Original issue thread here:  https://github.com/sparklemotion/nokogiri/issues/754

I know it's a long time after this issue was closed and I appreciate this is a libiconv / homebrew issue, but just in case others come this way just like me...

In the process of trying to get a zero warnings install of nokogiri on Mac OSX 10.9.3... I had the same problem as @geraldarthur upgrading from libiconv 1.13 to 1.14, namely:
Error: Permission denied - /usr/local/Cellar/libiconv/1.14 when running brew upgrade.
My kludge -
ls -l /usr/local/Cellar/ showed all directories except libiconv owned by me. libiconv owned by root and not otherwise writable. So permission denied not surprising.

$ ls -l /usr/local/Cellar/
