--- Comment #12 from tagwer...@innerjoin.org --- (In reply to groot from comment #11) > That's a lot of files, but my ulimit is higher... I notice that "ulimit -n" varies roughly with the amount of memory. I set up a 4Gbyte VM and got a ulimit of 116991. A quick check with an 8GB VM and I get 234943... > I have vague recollections that there are issues in file watches (e.g. > inotify or fam wasn't doing the things needed, or there's a Qt class that is > wonky) which is why a Linux box doesn't need to watch / open **nearly** as > many files as the BSDs do. But, vague recollection, no more. Don't know on that one. On Linux, you can see the these things happen with strace (if you are brave) and it watches for changes in folders rather than files. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
