I think you should limit the size, because it uses tmpfs to store the temporary journal.
That's true, and tmpfs is backed by disk if I'm not mistaken.
On swap. /IF/ the /var/log/journal/ directory exists, then the systemd journal is stored permanently there.
But also people should look at setting the various MaxLevel logging levels down in journals.conf.
This might make more sense than tight limits.
Not if you intend to use syslog-ng, I'm afraid. It works fine with rsyslog.
KDE is especially egregious at logging every little thing at the warning level.
Not the only one. I see a lot of entries froom gtk or others. I had to write filters to remove the chatter.
Almost none of that chatter is useful to anyone, and could go out at debug level, or even info. But the defaults are set such that all this chatter accumulates on disk.
