You did a "mv"?  If so, then this is normal UNIX behavior;  if a file is
open by a process renaming the file has no affect, internally the file
is identified by a handle that is independent of the name (b) if a file
is open by a process you can delete a file but the blocks are not freed
until the last process closes the file - and they can continue reading
and writing until that happens - thus deleted files can continue to
grow!

Have your distributions log rotate tool truncate the file periodically.
