Be careful with FAM on local file systems if you use the old FAM daemon. There is a bug in either FAM or the kernel that breaks FAM's use of dnotify. Gamin doesn't suffer this issue on local disks (as it uses inotify). I don't know if this would affect NFS users in either program.
I've been meaning to dig deeper and find out what is going on, I just haven't had time. -- Matthew
