It´s probably a good idea to look at the log files to find out what
causes so much data being written to them.

The du utility gives you some information about disk usage, and you can
adjust the configuration of logrotate to get rid of the log files
sooner.  When partitions/disks are more than 50% full, start planning to
extend the storage capacity.

For comparison, /var/log/messages currently goes over six days here and is
344kB in size.
