      * Log files are rotated count times before being removed or mailed to the address specified in a mail directive. If count is 0, old versions are removed rather than rotated.

+rsyslog_application_hardlimit
+-----------------------------
+
+**(optional)**
+
+If the size of the ``application.log`` file exceeds this number, ``rsyslog`` will run ``logrotate`` before appending the next line. This setting should be greater than ``application_logrotate_size``, because rotating logs this way has more adverse effects on your application (it will be blocked on writing to stdout while the rotation is in progress, for example).
+
+If size is followed by M, the size if assumed to be in megabytes. If the G suffix is used, the size is in gigabytes. If the k is used, the size is in kilobytes. So size 100, size 100k, and size 100M are all valid.
