5 minutes is an interesting coincidence. It's variable: it happens every
500 "persister events" -- see
http://hg.rabbitmq.com/rabbitmq-server/file/1c307e454a52/src/rabbit_persister.erl#l280
and the definition of MAX_WRAP_ENTRIES at
http://hg.rabbitmq.com/rabbitmq-server/file/1c307e454a52/src/rabbit_persister.erl#l52

You may wish to bump up this definition and see if it changes things for
you. (Note also I am working on general improvements to the persister,
but that could take Quite Some Time)

The system should *recover* from it; but with more connections and more
activity, you'll see log rollovers more frequently, and more stress on
the persister process.
