Depending the amount of queries and the number of times the actual script is loaded, your logs could flood very easily and bog down the server. These notions of logging EVERYTHING is sometimes worse than actually allowing the culprit script to run slowly or execute lots of queries. 4 GB of logfile says way less than actually reading through the script and checking to make sure that the queries are proper. If you are still intent on logging these queries, I would go with your logs_table idea and limit the fields and field lengths to the extreme and index it tightly to make sure that it does not grow too much in size, that means, char or varchar, and definitely no text/blob fields. If this is a web script, one idea would be to only trigger the logging for a specific set of IP numbers, so that only your own browser triggers the logging, but it is left dormant while others browse.
