syslogd 30% utilization in top, solaris 9

Hi folks,
Sorry to barge in and ask a question right off the bat without contributing first.
I have a V440, 4 X 1GHZ, 32GB ram, and recently syslogd has started showing 30+ % cpu usage. It's also repeating entries in the syslog, over and over.
the /var/log/syslog file had grown to over 2GB - I renamed it, made a new one, and stopped and restarted syslogd.
I'm kind of confused as to what could be happening here.
cheers,
Chris
