            This property allows you to specify the maximum size with the
            suffixes "KB", "MB" or "GB" so that the size is interpreted being 
            expressed respectively in kilobytes, megabytes or gigabytes. 
            </p><p>
            For example, the value "10KB" will be interpreted as 10240 bytes.
            </p><p>
            The default maximum file size is 10MB.
            </p><p>
            If you have the option to set the maximum file size programmatically
            consider using the <a href="P_log4net_Appender_RollingFileAppender_MaxFileSize.htm">MaxFileSize</a> property instead as this
            allows you to set the size in bytes as a <a href="http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/6yy583ek" target="_blank">Int64</a>.
