 Log write failures are not considered fatal: log writes may be skipped for any

+Some basic log file rotation can be enabled by setting 'rotate-size' to a value

 The timeouts of the exclusive lock used when writing to the lock file can be
 configured through the 'timeout.lock' and 'timeout.warn' options of this
 plugin. Those are not expected to be held for a significant time in practice.::
