I've just posted a blog regarding ASL files on OSX and iOS; there's some interesting behavioural things you can extract from these files. The post details the file format and some of the things you can pull from the logs.

Also some Python scripts to dump these logs offline or to build other parsing scripts around.

Hope it's useful (or at least interesting) to someone here!
