<p>Hi Mark,</p>
<p>thanks for the heads up. Compared to the other log files, the
sizes the gc.log can grow to is most the time still manageable but
it can be surprising. Fortunately is this one of the smaller
changes which are simple enough to fix. I opened two related pull
requests to make the rotation the default and fix up the
permissions if done so:</p>
<ul>
<li><a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/Zimbra/zm-mailbox/pull/389">https://github.com/Zimbra/zm-mailbox/pull/389</a></li>
<li><a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/Zimbra/zm-launcher/pull/2">https://github.com/Zimbra/zm-launcher/pull/2</a></li>
</ul>
<p>These won't change the settings on existing systems but will
apply on newly installed ones.<br>
</p>
<p>Cheers,</p>
<p>Malte<br>

<div>Malte S. filed this bug/RFE in 2015. We happened to look
at an 8.6 mailbox server today and noted the gc.log was more
than 225MB; the server had been running for only two months.</div>

<div>Please consider voting for this bug, especially if you run
a busy server(s) that is(are) going to be doing a lot of Java
garbage collection activity. If you have already made the
changes, please comment on the Bugzilla to indicate if Java is
able to manage its own log file rotation.</div>
