Online log file monitoring script?

Guruz,

I have to write a script that online monitors a
log file to check if a particular error message
turns up there.
The log file is quite big and I need to run some
commands right after the message appears in the log.
So, to grep for the message in every 1 second won't
work, because at the time the script finished
to grep the huge file some valuable seconds
would elapse.

Thanks in advance!

Regards,

John
