Right.  Actually there was talk about making something like that
possible but it may be another mechanism than notify.  But inotify
should scale well -- it doesn't require a separate descriptor for each
monitor, unlike dnotify.

Yes, that sounds right.  Also the client should put a monitor on the
database file so it can be notified of changes.  Or -- maybe that's not
really necessary.  All writes happen through beacon server, so couldn't
beacon notify the clients when the db has changed?
