I don't understand again. How can you reduce the number of monitored files? Hmm, you might misunderstand that "=rw" makes setting inotify. If so, you are wrong. Aufs sets inotify even if the branch is "=ro" since the files on the branch can be changed. You might want to specify "=rr" I wonder. And your stacking order is correct? Why do you put the writable branch on the last. It means the "bottom" of stacking.

Are you talking about the free space of /image_differences_for_user_1? I am afraid you cannot use the bottom writable branch in many operations. J. R.
