You should consider compress the logs...
My two cents... this is my logrotate config for squid.

/var/log/squid/*.log {
         daily
         compress
         rotate 31
         missingok
         nocreate
         sharedscripts
         postrotate
                 test ! -e /var/run/squid.pid || /usr/sbin/squid -k rotate
         endscript
}
