If I manually run the log rotate everything works fine, there must be
something else happening that I don't realize that is causing the memory
problems. I'm fresh out of ideas so any suggestions would be greatly
appreciated.
Time you could try changing when the log rotate happens. It is a
cronjob that runs daily and calls the program `logrotate`.
I think all the jobs in /etc/cron.daily look run at 4:02AM by default on
my system here. Check /etc/crontab to find out for yours.
You may wish to strip out /etc/cron.daily/logrotate and move it to the
root directory where you can set up r00ts `crontab` [man crontab for
more info] and have it run at say 3:00AM instead of firing with all the
other jobs in that directory.
