I've been using mysql for a while now, but haven't yet been able to figure
out what the
<domainname>-bin.001, .002, .003, etc. files are listed in the /var
directory.  They seem to get completely out of control sometimes (I usually
go through and delete them daily - after deleting and re-creating about 4
million entries, there were 3 bin files totalling almost 3 gigs...)

What are these files exactly (i always figured they were some sort of log),
why do they get so out of control with disk space, and is there any way i
can get rid of them.  thanks!
