Filipe Manana commented on COUCHDB-1003:
----------------------------------------

"Note:
this isn't the only test where we do apply such fix. Feel free to reopen th=
e ticket anyway. "

Beno=C3=AEt, what other tests do that? The only ones that do a wait loop I =
can remember, like replicator_db.js, do it to wait for something to happen =
and not to fix an issue like this one.

And as for the 2nd file descriptor, it's ref counted like the updater file =
descriptor. I don't it's the cause for this.

> I wonder why we spawn the file deletion when we delete a database. On slo=
w io machine it introduces latency. I don't see any reason we make this del=
etion asynchronous ?
> About couch_file:delete, we first rename the file before deleting it. Why=
 are we doing that ? Is this for windows ?
