Right now, dispatchChanges.php produces a lot of output even if there are no changes. This leads to large log files (over 70 MB during just a weekend). Setting up logrotate is a way but it would be cooler to be able to choose a log level. Current log content: 10:41:07 Processing changes for devclient 10:41:07 Found no new changes for enwiki, at 2450. 10:41:07 Released devclient for site enwiki at 2450. 10:41:07 Posted no changes to devclient (nothing to do). Next ID is 2450. 10:41:08 Picking a client wiki... 10:41:08 Trying enwiki 10:41:09 Locked devclient for site enwiki at 2450. 10:41:09 Processing changes for devclient 10:41:09 Found no new changes for enwiki, at 2450. 10:41:09 Released devclient for site enwiki at 2450. 10:41:09 Posted no changes to devclient (nothing to do).

It's not quite as much if you remove the --verbose option from the call. But it's still too much. I suppose without --verbose, it shouldn't output anything if there's nothing to do.
