Hello,

After running normally for 6 or 7 days, starting at midnight, on my syslog-ng server running freebsd 11-Rel and syslog-ng 3.7.3_7 (installed with pkg), I started getting a Log statistics record every 10 minutes, which is excessive.

This is only happening with a local log file designated in the .conf file like so-

source s_local { system(); internal(); };

destination d_local { file("/var/log/sng_local"); };

log { source(s_local); destination(d_local); };

This is one of the entries I'm getting every 10min in the /var/log/sng_local file-

Apr 25 12:00:02 logbox syslog-ng[370]: Log statistics; processed='source(s_network)=2602643', processed='destination(security)=18', processed='center(received)=2912379', processed='destination(ppp)=0', processed='src.internal(s_local#3)=894', stamp='src.internal(s_local#3)=1493139002', processed='center(queued)=3235133', processed='destination(console)=15635', processed='src.none()=0', stamp='src.none()=0', processed='destination(audit)=18', processed='destination(messages)=2595805', processed='destination(xferlog)=0', processed='global(payload_reallocs)=1703', processed='global(sdata_updates)=27054', processed='destination(allusers)=0', processed='destination(authlog)=391', processed='destination(maillog)=299021', processed='destination(consolelog)=0', processed='destination(lpd-errs)=0', processed='destination(cron)=14282', processed='destination(slip)=0', processed='global(msg_clones)=0', processed='source(s_local)=309736', processed='destination(d_local)=309736', processed='destination(debuglog)=227', processed='global(internal_queue_length)=0'

What did I do to deserve this every 10 minutes?
