Ideally for a test, the results should be the same for each run. If this is the case would it be possible to use a version control application (bazaar?) as the output for logging the test results? If everything is going well then each run should effectively just log the date and time of the test run with the results being the same as the previous run.
I haven't used bazaar for long but I know with subversion it possible to restructure repositories if they get to big. One simple way to clear very old test histories would be to load a truncated history into a new repository.
I know this is more complicated than the suggestion but it would mean the version control system would help pin point any errors / changes.
