Our client list, which is 540,000 email addresses and names(a little shorter than a log line) is only 37 KB.

As each character in a name or address is a byte, even if the email address amounts to "@" then that's 527KB? Admittedly my logs include a lot more than just the connection IP address but your math seems a little off.
Also could you explain how your "nothing special" router is running Apache as a basic service, seeing as we're talking about basic, unaltered consumer routers? And I'd be interested to know how you can operate SSH on the "debugger port" of your router? Does the router come with a special install of dropbear? How did you program your public/private key combo to get into SSH on the "debugger port".
Oh, and the linux gurus on the DD-WRT forums would really like to know what the address of the "debugger port" is? I'm presuming it's not 22 as that's the standard rather than a "debugger" address, and most people I know don't operate SSH on the standard port anyway as it gets pinged all the time from China. How do you access it? Putty, WinSCP, some manufacturer utility I could d/load from their website?
Enquiring minds would like to know.
