Shahzad, take a read of this:

It's for that reason (and that CF slows down when the log files get that
big) that I have a nightly job that inspects the CF logs, checks if
they're over 1 MB in size and, if so, moves them to an archive
directory. Archives are cleaned up at least once a month.

I've not found that to be so. I've never had a problem moving or
deleting one of CF's logs while it was running. </snip>

that was from a thread called "CF Log Files" just last week,

Size of my application.log file is 51217475. Does it make any difference
if it keeps growing without cleaning or we should clear it up. If we
should clean it can I trim it like deleting old data? Or do I have to
delete file altogether? I cant view it from CFAdmin page as it says size
exceed limit of displaying results.....
