The service log will grow very large, because it contains the complete communication during the charging session. To avoid filling the disk space with old logs, we may want to limit the size. One option is explained at https://got-tty.org/journalctl-via-journald-conf-die-loggroesse-definierenDo:
`nano /etc/systemd/journald.conf` and set the settings
```
SystemMaxUse=500M
SystemMaxFileSize=100M
```
The first value defines the overall disk space which is used by the service logs. The second value specifies the maximum size of a single log file.

Using an RaspberryPi 3 without additional startup time optimization, the time from power-on until the start of SLAC is ~21 seconds.
