@syntax mine got EmulationStation + Kodi + Shairport. Not much r/w operations daily as Kodi stuff is on NAS. It had torrent client as well, but it killed SD cards.
I bet logs kill your SD card as it's a ton of small operations -> the worst thing for the SD card.
For the future life of your SD cards: Create a ram disk, collect 100MB of logs in the RAM disk and dump logs to SD Card in 100MB chunks, instead of constant ~10kb R/W operations :)
Or simply point loggers to network storage.
