According to the javadocs:

http://logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2/apidocs/org/apache/log4j/DailyRollingFileAppender.html#subAppend(org.apache.log4j.spi.LoggingEvent)

"Before actually logging, this method will check whether it is time to do a
rollover. If it is, it will schedule the next rollover time and then
rollover. "

This means it can take 2 seconds or 2 years before it actually rolls (when
no log events are being generated for 2 years).
