Hi,

Has anyone has used fam with thousands of directories? I have about 6k of them, and halfway through traversing the directory tree the Perl script that I am using hangs up.

I am aware that I have to keep reading messages while I am adding directories to avoid filling the message queue, so that is not an issue.

I would appreciate any hints on where to look for the problem.

Terrorism is a tactic and so to declare war on terrorism
is equivalent to Roosevelt's declaring war on blitzkrieg.
