How to change Logs quotas

[PK]

I recall there was a way in the old console to 

1. see how much storage your logs take and how many days this spans

2. A way from App Settings to increase the storage

Anybody knows how to do this right now? (This SO thread seems out of date).

Well I guess this doe not exist any more…

PS It is a minor cost and a major inconvenience that the logs are not stored with gzip encoding in the Cloud Storage by default (or as an option)

from: https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/python/logs/

"By default, logs are stored for an application free of charge for up to 30 days. Logs older than the maximum retention time are deleted. If you want to retain your logs for longer than 30 days, you can export logs to Google Cloud Storage, Google BigQuery, or Google Cloud Pub/Sub".

You are correct that there no longer is a way to configure the storage limit of logs.  Logs are simply stored for 30 days regardless of the storage space occupied as far as I know.

Regarding the gzip encoding for Stackdriver Logging exports to Cloud Storage, this sounds like a great idea and I highly recommend that you file a feature request on the Cloud Platform public issue tracker and post a link to it here so that others may follow up and support the request.

In the meantime, if this compression is really crucial, I suppose one could create a cron job that retrieves, compresses and re-uploads logs to Cloud Storage but I suspect this would not be very cost effective as the handler to perform this daily task would cost instance hours (albeit fractionally).
