A router is not going to be CPU-bound. Should matter little either way.

I don't understand how to use logrotate, but I'm pretty sure cron runs
it. /var/lib/mysql was using 21G, so I think I can go in there (or at
least into the mysql client) and delete the databases that I myself have
created and am no longer using. If I understood the command you
recommended it
What should I do about the *-bin files in /var/lib/mysql? I've dropped
the databases I've created and don't need anymore, but there's still a
lot of files in there, and it's still 21G. There are several files
there dated 2008 that are also on another computer. How do I safely
remove them?
