</div>Before deleting you should review the log files to find out what exactly is<br>
happening to Tor, that made it produce so much logs. This shouldn't ever<br>
happen during normal operation.</blockquote><div><br></div><div>That's true. I assumed the juicy stuff would be in notices.log and notices.log.1, but yes, it would make a lot of sense to review the older logs as well. Perhaps Tor is not starting up nicely and is constantly spitting out error messages / warnings. </div>
