Hi, I assume this comment was about the inotify part. I was looking just at the docs. Not sure which version they are for. But I see a December 4th, 2013 comment for a 2008 issue in Bugzilla that makes me think inotify is not being used.
I also saw a max of 100 files can be monitored without recompiling. That feels like a serious limit. Is making that higher (1000?) or configurable an option?
