----------------------------------------

"Note:
this isn't the only test where we do apply such fix. Feel free to reopen the 
ticket anyway. "

BenoƮt, what other tests do that? The only ones that do a wait loop I can 
remember, like replicator_db.js, do it to wait for something to happen and not 
to fix an issue like this one.

And as for the 2nd file descriptor, it's ref counted like the updater file 
descriptor. I don't it's the cause for this.

> deleting db file is asynchronous & file rename in couch_file:delete

> I wonder why we spawn the file deletion when we delete a database. On slow io 
> machine it introduces latency. I don't see any reason we make this deletion 
> asynchronous ?
> About couch_file:delete, we first rename the file before deleting it. Why are 
> we doing that ? Is this for windows ?
