SGI fam port doesn't use kqueue/kfilter interface because of kqueue impossibilty to monitor files by inode/filename. Therefore it requires to actually open file for reading that can potentially pollute system memory by open file descriptors (the limited number of which is usually available) and always consumes a large number of resources. I'm currently working on providing imon-like interface for FreeBSD to monitor fs events in efficient way. Currently, timer-based monitoring is the most efficient way, IMHO. -- Stanislav Sedov MBSD labs, Inc. <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Россия, Москва http://mbsd.msk.ru -------------------------------------------------------------------- If the facts don't fit the theory, change the facts. -- A.
