> There are some users that would like or need to have BroControl maintain their collected logs with tighter granularity than how many days old the logs are.
> Right now the find command that determines which files to delete uses `-mtime` which is `x*24hr`.  We would need to use the `-mmin` argument otherwise, but I suspect this would introduce the need to do some parsing of of the value given so that people could specify things like `10hr` or `5days`.
