Try the following, and you will see that while you are editing the file, syslog continues to update the log file.
- go to the end of the file in vi and see what is there.
- wait a few minutes to let something loggable happen.
- in a separate window, do a tail on the log file.
- the results will be different, because syslog continues to update the file.
Here is another demo:
When you saved the log file from within vi, you wiped out the changes that syslog had made. Normally, not a good idea to make changes to syslog log file, unless some over-riding benefit.

SYNOPSIS
glance-cache-cleaner [options]
DESCRIPTION
This is meant to be run as a periodic task from cron.
If something goes wrong while we're caching an image (for example the fetch times out, or an exception is raised), we create an 'invalid'
entry. These entires are left around for debugging purposes. However, after some period of time, we want to clean these up.
Also, if an incomplete image hangs around past the image_cache_stall_time period, we automatically sweep it up.
