CHECK_METHOD = modtime is not working as expected due to a regression in 9.x as there is wrong calculation which will lead to un-expected re-reading of a file.
Until next patch, use following workaround for inputs with CHECK_METHOD = modtime
In inputs.conf set following for impacted stanza

time_before_close=0
