-------------------------
Thanks for the patch.
In the benchmark, how big was the file that you were tailing?
> Tailer locks file from deletion/rename on Windows

> The Tailer code works on Windows, except that it locks the file against
> deletion or rename.
> The test code fails to detect this, because it fails to check if the file
> deletion succeeds.
> This seems to be a Windows OS issue.
> A possible solution might be to keep closing and re-opening the file.
