Too many open files about pugo HOT 4 CLOSED

Is on OSX ?

In fsnotify FAQ, the limit of openning files depends on system,

https://github.com/fsnotify/fsnotify/wiki/FAQ

How many files can be watched at once?

There are OS-specific limits as to how many watches can be created:

Linux: /proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_watches contains the limit, reaching this limit results in a "no space left on device" error.

BSD / OSX: sysctl variables "kern.maxfiles" and "kern.maxfilesperproc", reaching these limits results in a "too many open files" error.

You can use ulimit or other ways to change system variables.

I will add --no-watch to server command. But it can't rebuild after file changes.

That's looks work for me. But Instead of change ulimit of system, is there any other better way?

I find a fsevent library without system file handler

But I think it's not stable now.

So it seems now alternative way right now.
