Using inotify with rsync is a great idea.
If one has a job that runs daily to get differences on a very large
filesytem with very small files, then can do this (assuming the
initial copy is already completed):
inotify watch source filesystem (or tree)
take down all the notices in a txt file

Hello,
I have followed the discussion of speeding up rsync when there are lots
of files, and I have a proposal which I think would greatly speed rsync
when doing routine mirroring of large filesystems.
One of the speed-limiting issues with rsync is having to send huge file
lists when
