Agreed on all points here, even if the analysis was actually a fairly simple
analysis. In addition, there are techniques where you take a subset of the
data (say 20-25% - if you have enough data to be significant), you develop your
model on that, and then you run the model against the full data set
It's interesting what you can do with a small sample of even say 100 logs. It
would make a real interesting grad school project for someone taking statistics
(Hint to anyone from CQ Magazine reading - Stony Brook has a good stat program,
with students looking for Masters projects all the time)
