Im my experience, if your logs are growing that fast for a reason, you'll get to see it again... and again... and again. And show it to people going, "WTF, have you ever seen anything like this before?"
In my case docker didn't have a default max size that logs would stop at, so they just grew and grew exponentially. I also had the highest log level turned on to debug something so it was constantly logging a bunch of data.
Are logging the content of your log files?
