Hi, I guess with performance you mean the performance of reporting events. I understand it can be a performance issue when there are a lot of events. I haven't tested that yet. The events are received by the userspace daemon, and if they are not initiated by this daemon self, they are send to the VFS with just inodenumber, mask and eventually the name of the entry. There a lookup is done of the inode using ilookup5, and reported to fsnotify using the common function fsnotify, defined in fsnotify.c, 190. Well I know I have to test this by creating and deleting a lot of files in the watched directory. I will report later.
