What happens when the consumer is started empty, as in "has never pulled
any data before"? Will it then initially perform a full syncrepl
replication to load itself and then switch to using logfilter=, or does
it always use logfilter= ?

In other words, if I have the provider slapd purge its accesslog database
every twenty days, and a consumer is powered up on the thirtieth day, 
what will it miss?
