10.5: One fix for a runaway syslogd process
Authored by: ryapeter on Mon, Nov 17 2008 at 9:47AM PST
I've found that Colloquy is the cause of my syslogd problem.

So I've tried to shut down the Time Machine and reload, it doesn't work. Unload do the job, so I'm telling myself maybe if I restart and the process start fresh the problem will be solved.

As usual I'm closing my apps one by one. After I close colloquy and trying to close Mail I was prompted with unfinished mail. So I decide to finish before restarting. Then I realise the processor usage drop to almost none.

I used to have same problem that colloquy hogging the processor. I restarted colloquy and syslogd work 100% again. So yes my culprit is colloquy.

Do you guys have any specific software that may cause the problem?

Is Colloquy logging might contribute to this?

Thanks,

Richard
