    Description

      I'm using kairosdb 1.1.3 which uses logback as it's logging library. When the log reaches 100MB the log rotates successfully, but many .tmp files are held open, resulting in the disk space not being freed up:

      I tried updating the the latest versions of logback-core and logback-classic, but still see the same issue
