Enqueues chunks of data (from various sources -- application crashes, kernel log records, etc.). The queue is size bounded and will drop old data if the enqueued data exceeds the maximum size. You can think of this as a persistent, system-wide, blob-oriented "logcat".

DropBoxManager entries are not sent anywhere directly, but other system services and debugging tools may scan and upload entries for processing.
