I should mention that if copying the file causes it to be nicely compressed, then you can use this to your advantage. Your log-file rotator can copy the file and delete the original rather than just renaming it. You would not want to take any snapshots until after the logs have been rotated since the snapshots would capture the sub-sized poorly-compressed blocks.
