Not that this helps but I have seen what you describe only while running in a VM Ware environment.

Hello,

I'm running 1.2.1-RC1 (built on Sat Sep 13 03:53:42 EDT 2008). After about 10 days of uptime, I noticed that logs were becoming stale. It turns out that all logging functionality stopped yesterday evening. In dmesg, the last messages are:

   pid 20276 (clog), uid 0: exited on signal 11 (core dumped)
   pid 20281 (clog), uid 0: exited on signal 11 (core dumped)

I then noticed that the syslogd process is using 100% CPU:

   USER   PID %CPU %MEM   VSZ   RSS  TT  STAT STARTED      TIME COMMAND
root 217 100.0 0.1 3236 1096 ?? Rs 16Oct08 1083:50.92 /usr/sbin/syslogd -ss -f /var/etc/syslog.conf

I tried to hup the proc but it wouldn't die, so I had to kill it and restart syslogd by hand.

Any ideas on how to troubleshoot the cause of this further?

Cheers,
Ian

That is interesting - is there something unique about running pfsense on vmware that is different from running directly on hardware? We are moving everything to vmware except our pfsense firewalls, but we are considering it.
