[syslog-ng] TMI: spam-like messages every 30 sec?

Hi folks,
Every 30 seconds I get one of these messages in my syslog file, on
behalf of syslog-ng, for each and every file destination (I have
about 50):
Reaping unused destination files; template='/var/log/blah/$YEAR/
$MONTH/$HOST/maillog'
Now this happens even for very heavily used log destinations,
including the firewall, which is getting a few hundred hits a minute.
Basically, this is filling up my /var partition every couple days and
I'd like to stop it.
I haven't found the config to use to turn this log message OFF, and I
would like to know why even the busiest logs are getting tagged as
'unused'.
Can someone give me some clues here?
Much appreciation,
KC
