Re: [SOLVED] everything.log - syslog-ng showing a lot of "Log statistics"
Every few minutes syslog will spit out statistics. Like you, I don't know what they mean, and I don't care. I got rid of them by adding "stats (0);" to the top of /etc/syslog-ng.conf, in the "options" section. If you read the man page for syslog-ng.conf, you will find all the other options you can add to that file to tailor it to your needs. You might be interested in "mark," too.
Ciao.

Re: [SOLVED] everything.log - syslog-ng showing a lot of "Log statistics"
As stated in these lines they are just statistic log lines for your own information.
As far as I remember you can avoid them by adding a "stats(0)" in the options of /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf (or /etc/syslog-ng.conf I never remember the path) :
options {
[...]
stats(0);
[...]
}EDIT: Whoops! Too late

*EDIT*
And next time, try to avoid posting a new question in a "SOLVED" thread.
