What is the advantage of log file rotation?

  softwareengineering

I understand that log file rotation is changing the log file you used when (1) one gets big enough or (2) at EOD, but I’m not sure I understand the reason for (1). I have never had any issues with large files and cannot think of reasons why we might set an arbitrary limit (for example, the limit we were given was 10 MiB).
