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. > start crawler for dir x.

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?
