Reviewing your messages and seeing the traffic I am working with, I have
surmised that you have some pretty decent tools to work with.  Our PIX
produces about 500mb of logs a day which means I might as well not have
logging since there is no way I can review this amount of data myself.
Would you please recommend an analyzing tool to break out the important or
at least likely important information from the logs?

logsurfer - has some pretty nice capabilities that go beyond simple
regexp parsing like grep. Although it can consume quite a bit of CPU
if used with large an complex rulebases.
