Files in /proc are only file-like interfaces to the kernel and don't
take up any memory. Your /proc/kcore file should be about the same 
size as the RAM you have, because it _is_ your RAM: only as a file and
munged a little bit for kernel needs.

It can't grow unless you just added some memory to your system.

Where these debug messages go is entirely up to you when you configure
the syslog.conf file. A standard place is /var/log, and there should
be several files there, like messages (kernel and other messages), maillog
and other stuff. Yours might be uulog or somesuch.
