searchlog.log

Search log file. When “Search Log” under [System > General] is enabled, one line (JSON) is appended for each search in the default configuration. A line contains the fields of the documents returned by that search (logging.search.docs.fields), so its size grows with the number of results returned (with num=100, a line can be around 70 KB). For log rotation and retention, see Log Configuration. To leave the fields of the returned documents out of the search log, set logging.search.docs.enabled=false in fess_config.properties; to stop writing to this file, set logging.search.use.logfile=false.

gc-crawler.log

Garbage collection log file of the crawler process (written by the default “Default Crawler” job).

gc-fess.log

Garbage collection log file of Fess itself. It is written only when the environment variable FESS_USE_GC_LOGGING is set to a non-empty value (see Startup, Shutdown, and Initial Setup).
