Q: what is animationperfd_Generic_DEBUG.txt?

I found this file while cleaning up stuff.  Don't know what it is (even though it is 'Zero bytes') and cannot delete it from Trash:  message is that it is in use.  I am running Yosemite on a late 2010 Mac Mini (500gb HDD, 8gb RAM).

Mac mini, OS X Yosemite (10.10.5)

    Thanks, Ralph - I just happened to do a restart for something else & saw that the file was able to be Trashed.
