I'm not really sure what this has to do with FreeBSD-stable and why you don't have a full real name, but if you tell us you have a busy web site it may be a very cool trick to look for those web server's log files and cut them off regularly. When you're using Apache from the ports, they could reside at /var/log/[apache|httpd]-access /var/log/[apache|httpd]-error Take care when you try to simply move them, you will have to send the httpd a SIGHUP to re-open his log files, otherwise they won't be unlinked.
