Inotify is for Linux, kqueue is for BSDs. Right? So I'd think there are a lot of other issues if you're switching between Linux/BSDs.. That would be a problem :-) Oops. Looks like I need to increase the priority of NFSv4 on the test queue for these machines. ---Jack

[Dovecot] NFS - inotify vs kqueue
Hi, I've seen some chatter on NFS boards about kqueue being more reliable than inotify when used in NFSv3 and NFSv2. The chatter is a bit old so I don't know if it is true anymore. Anyone have pro/con experience with dovecot on the inotify/kqueue question when using NFS storage? I realize that kqueue is probably a bit slower and causes some delay with IDLE. Also, it may not really make any difference which is why I ask the question. ---Jack
