The upstream fam web site documents a limitation of the current
implementation which uses select(). Upstream says select() is limited
to 1024 fds.
I've requested a workaround at:
http://oss.sgi.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=490
Perhaps this limit can be increased under Linux.
You might want to use gamin instead which supports inotify and might
work better in such scenarii.
Cheers,
