How big the directory for es.path.logs and es.path.work has to be?

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

I understand es.path.data is place elasticsearch store data. I am just
wondering if the log directory and work directory needs be somewhat big
too when we store a more and more data in ES. Is there any known cases
that the storage size of these directory, especially work directory, caused
any problem.
Thanks,
Jack

The work directory is deprecated as far I know, so you shouldn't need to
worry about it.
Logging will depend on what you do and how you manage retention, eg I just
checked one of our nodes and it has 400MB of logs for this month so far.

Thanks, It's good to know that work directory is deprecated which is I
thought more likely to have issue if not enough space left.
