If you had once configured many log files, and then change the configuration to fewer log files than before, svlogd won't reduce the number of log files; you would need to remove them manually.

Here, I'll try it again: No, it won't remove log files, see above. The question is whether the number of log files still is increasing, and if so, whether it still increases after sending the SIGHUP.
