Most likely it is logrotate/split_logs that is causing the problem.  
If you only get the one message, and not continual all day, I 
wouldn't worry about it.  The log splitter is a notorious hog, and if 
it's running for more than 15 minutes (enough that Active Monitor 
'catches' it), you must have some fairly large log files.

By the time you're checking it, the high memory use is over...  if you 
were logged in at 4am and running 'top' you'd see it all happening.
