Daniel,
Great - the fflush worked. The OS is Debian Etch 64. I am using
php/mapscript.
Perhaps you recall that I had a similar problem with the same server
with PHP/mapscript and calling flush caused a segmentation fault to show
in the apache error logs. Perhaps there is something similar I could
experiment with that would flush mapscript output?

Um... the only reason I can think of for this to happen would be if your
mapserv processes hang and never close/flush the log output. Actually,
are you using the mapserv CGI or MapScript? On which OS is this happening?
If you built from source, you could possibly work around the problem by
adding a fflush() call in msDebug() after the msIO_vfprintf() line. That
could keep you going but would not solve the key issue which seems to be
that your processes possibly hang or something like that. We'd need more
info to help with that.
