besides what others already suggested wrt figuring out what's too verbose
i'd suggest checking and adjusting your logrotation settings
(in /etc/logrotate.d/* and /etc/logrotate.conf) to keep stuff from
filling up your disk.

You could look at '/etc/rsyslog.conf' and disable any logging you do not
wish to keep track of.
You would have to either restart the board or restart the service for it to
take.

Ex:
  * sudo /etc/init.d/rsyslogd stop*
   *sudo /etc/init.d/rsyslogd start*

The other option would be to remove any .gz file under /var/log that you do
not want or create a script that purges these.

However, if you are getting an excessive amount of logging on something
particular like messages, then it might be best to find what that issue is
and see if it can be resolved.   Just a suggestion.


Cheers,

Jon
