    """
    This is an extension of the python FileHandler that advises the Kernel to not cache the file
    in PageCache when it is written. While there is nothing wrong with such cache (it will be cleaned
    when memory is needed), it causes ever-growing memory usage when scheduler is running as it keeps
    on writing new log files and the files are not rotated later on. This might lead to confusion
    for our users, who are monitoring memory usage of Scheduler - without realising that it is
    harmless and expected in this case.

    See https://github.com/apache/airflow/issues/14924

    Adding the advice to Kernel might help with not generating the cache memory growth in the first place.
