Is there *ever* enough coffee?

Well, you're probably right - I thought it used to be that way, too. At the moment, what I'm seeing (which initially led me to believe apache had to be restarted) is that it only spews stuff to the log file when apache is started (or restarted, or gracefully restarted). Didn't it used to more-or-less continually dump stuff to the log file, as apps would come and go?
