Applocker - Change Event Logs to Failure Only
We are in a pilot phase of developing Windows 7 for our company and are moving from SRP to AppLocker.
During our tests we wish to be able to view AppLocker events to ensure our rules are suitable, however we have a problem that our log file fills up too quickly and not many/if any errors would appear because any dll/exe etc loaded has been logged.
We know we can increase the log size and filter however we wish to keep the log file to a decent size.
If increasing the size is the best way forward then we will have to go that way

It seems there is no way to do so. As you mentioned, you can change the log size as a workaround. Also, change the setting to "Archive the log when full, do not
overwrite events".
Besides, check the following two group policies and see if they helps:
Local Computer Policy / Computer Configuration / Administrative templates / Windows Components / Event Log Service / Application / Backup log automatically
when full
Local Computer Policy / Computer Configuration / Administrative templates / Windows Components / Event Log Service / Application / Retain old events
