10.5: One fix for a runaway syslogd process
Authored by: zo219 on May 09, '08 04:36:14AM

I suspect the oversize asl.db is the culprit (and have just tossed it) ... because not a thing on this whole thread is the case with my machine.

This syslogd has become a nuisance in 10.5.2, for the first time. I'm also on a MacBook Pro for the first time, as opposed to Powerbooks, but doubt that's the connection.

Occasionally, quitting the Finder along with killing syslogd will solve the go round. But I've been watching that asl.db grow and grow ... I'd bet anything this will be the cure.
