Memory leak perhaps.

I would upgrade to 1.6.x, your version is several revs old.

Hi,

I like the concept of syslog-ng and so I decided to install it. I run a
Debian stable (woody), and the version that comes with it is 1.5.15-1.1. I
didn't change much on its configuration files, merely adding the udp logging
source. That's all, honestly. And it worked pretty stable for a couple of
weeks.

Some day, I noticed that the server load was constantly around 80% because
of rpc.statd and another process. I was wondering why, until I noticed that
syslog-ng was not running!

So I restarted it, and the load was gone.

Why could it happen that syslog-ng terminates?

Thanks,
