It is a proven concept for log data to use a merge table. Adding a new table every so often and removing the oldest one.

Before you try this, please read about the MERGE table restrictions in the reference manual, chapters "14.2. The MERGE Storage Engine" and "14.2.1. MERGE Table Problems". If these restrictions do not affect your application, go ahead.

I do not dare to comment on performance. We have a special forum for this.
