--- Comment #3 from Mark Johnston <markj at FreeBSD.org> ---
(In reply to Jamie Landeg-Jones from comment #1)
It sounds like the documentation is says that the "when" field may contain both
a time and an interval, and that both constraints must be satisfied for
rotation to occur.  For example, 24 at T00, meaning "rotate at midnight if it's
been at least 24 hours since the last rotation."  As far I can tell, the
documentation isn't referring to the "size" field at all in the paragraph that
you quoted.
