When I just checked now, /var/log/mysql had about 2G of logfiles in it, and the root filesystem (containing /var/log) was full. My best guess is that it was filling up each night, but then by morning mysql would have purged the oldest logfile, so it looked like space wasn't a problem. Should I expect that much logging to be happening? It looks like database transaction logs. I have tuned it down to 3 days of log history instead of 10. Thanks for the tip!
