Hmmm...it remind me that delaycompress was a problem before. See #2962, François Bayard had a problem with huge log files.
Do you plan to change something in jetty in order to stop writing in the file ?

The point of this ticket is that it is necessary to use delaycompress for any logrotate configs that have a sharedscripts section. Bug #2962 was about the uncompressed logs taking up extra space - but it is clearly preferable to not drop logs than to save space: correctness comes before optimisation.

Please fix this ASAP.
