Clean Logs from Database

[JackRabbit]

I simply want to clean my database up and the cron job task logs and the modules log are taking 700mb of space in my db. lines like this:

(128726, 'Jobs Executed', 23, 'RunJobsQueue.executed', '0', '2019-04-24 13:50:04', '2019-04-24 13:50:04'),

How can I clean these out of my database, is there any reason I should keep them?

Utilities > System > System Cleanup. Here you can prune Activity Log deleting old records.

Well, bad things happen and Activity Log can be very helpful to determine what went wrong. I usually keep all records. If the size of tblactivitylog becomes too big, I tend to delete records older than 3 years.

The Activity log is different from the Module log. 

And I just found the answer here, Brian responded to a similar post which I missed before posting here:

System Module Debug Log

This module debugging tool can be used to identify and resolve problems communicating with remote API systems. It will record and display the raw API data being sent to, and received back from the remote system. Logging should only ever be enabled for testing, and never left enabled all the time.

I should have left Module logging off. No wonder my database was so big.
