[syslog-ng] Getting log statistics file every 10 minutes.

Hi,

The frequency of this message depends on the stats-freq() global option,
you can adjust it as needed. The funny thing is, that the default of this
option is ten minutes (600 seconds), and has been so for ages (AFAIK). So
the real question is, why didn't you get this message every ten minutes
until now?

Regards,

Robert
