I suspect your "after" callbacks are interfering with each other,
perhaps over the log file access.  You already have two in the
sample code, and there may be more, in ClearExpired, saveSeen, etc. 
How large does the log file get?

 
But isn't the TCL event loop single threaded?

It is, but you can still get into these situations (usually caused by a
bug).

You mentioned you were also making http calls.  Is it possible that
your log entries are arriving faster than the http calls complete (http
is event driven behind the scenes, so calling into http to make a call
will restart the event loop again) causing requests to 'stack up'?
