How? 'sort -u' or 'grep -v' to detect duplicates will prevent the IP list growing too big.
You neglected to suggest the IPs be validated. If you allow random text to be written to your disk, you're gagging for a DoS.
This data is not random, or even arbitrary. We know that it is a validated IP as determined by apache and passed to the ErrorDocument handler. IN general though, your point is valid.
