Description

The refactoring from OAK-6002 moved the cleanup of the tar readers into the read lock, which blocks concurrent writers from progressing. This was a problem with oak-segment before and fixed with OAK-3329.
As cleanup can take up to a couple of minutes on busy system we should re-establish the former behaviour.
