Hi, https://github.com/balabit/syslog-ng/pull/1505 seems to address memory problems. If you use my git head packages, I can add this patch for you and see if it resolves your problems.

We are running git head download post 3.9.1 and the memory footprint seems to continually grow.
Looking at the statistics for queued messages I found none, but discovered that we have nearly 22,000 statistic sets for a total of 68195 tracked statistics. % /usr/local/sbin/syslog-ng-ctl stats | wc -l 68195
It it possible that all of these statistics take up a non-trivial amount of RAM?
USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TTY STAT START TIME COMMAND root 1489 79.2 61.5 12134140 10139760 ? Ssl Apr24 41581:22 /usr/local/sbin/syslog-ng
That is a 12GB footprint after 1 month of uptime.
