Does the linux-tick-processor match the version of node / V8 that
generated the log file?

Are you using the cluster module?  If events from multiple processes
end up in a single log file, the tick processor output will be bogus.
Node.js master understands --logfile=%p.log, where %p is replaced with
the process ID.
