I've got just one question on this program...
Why do you need to keep on reading from the logfile when no clients are requesting updates? It would seem better/easier to simply keep the logfile filehandle open then check for new data on it when a client sends a request. This way the program only needs one loop, and you avoid any unnecessary IPC headaches.
