Log Inbound Traffic - Fortinet 600C

How does everyone track their inbound traffic? At the moment all of my policies do not have the Log All Sessions box checked so I am unable to track inbound traffic (source and destination). Is there a global setting to just enable this for all policies? Probably not advisable I would imagine, so does everyone just turn this on per policy? Is there anyone that logs all inbound traffic? Just wondering how this affected their hardware or if they had to grow their memory.

FGT record traffic log based on policy, if traffic passthrough FGT, it is " forward" traffic., if traffic stop at FGT, it is "local " traffic

Enable traffic log will impact performance , mostly for CPU.
