no it isn't

I've found another issue in the ringbuffer (different problem) where
under some circumstances reading from the file would get interrupted
even though the file isn't terminated yet....

this can happen if the backend is a tad slow into writing to the file;
if the reader reads EOF in between two writes; then the read will be
interrupted and the frontend will freeze..
