Perhaps you are writing to the file from several threads or processes at once? By the way, you shouldn't need fsync() if you merely want to look at the log files, because your OS will have an up-to-date view of the file contents anyway. fsync() is useful if you want to be sure the data has been written to the hard disk drive, rather than just kept in the operating system's filesystem cache. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
