You have 8.1 GB site files and 3.5GB swap so total 11.6 GB

6.8 GB usr directory and
1.3 GB run directory

so total 19.7 GB occupied by 4 directory. check your usr and var directory you’ll get your answer

Yes you can remove log files regularly it’s safe. And logs files take lots of space by default. But you can configure to reduce size and set log rotate duration from openlitespeed panel (7080)
