Nothing there to explain why the file is getting to a gigabyte in size -- 
unless you just deleted it.

I do wonder why it has the last message 689 times though. I am not sure 
what that is for, but maybe it means you started to compose a message and 
then canceled it 689 times.

Maybe wait until tomorrow or when it is large again and try that again to 
see what lines are logged a lot.
