You call sleep only when the file is updated. As long as the file is not
updated the loop runs continuously and therefore 100%.
and is there any way to fix it?
move the sleep call out of the if, and put the update of old_time in the if
while True:
new_time = os.stat(fname).st_mtime
if new_time > old_time:
updated = return_tail(fname, bufsize, linesep)
for i in updated:
print i
old_time = new_time
time.sleep(sec_to_wait)
Thank You Bob
