[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 115801] Re: max inotify user watches in the kernel should be increased for beagle indexing to be optimal

[Joe Shaw]

I added procps to this as an affected package, because I think the right
place to fix this is there.  This can happen with any program that will
set up lots of inotify watches, not just Beagle, although it's the most
likely culprit at this point.

I'd suggest setting it to at least 65536.  A higher number of watches
will take additional kernel memory, but only if those watches are used.
So for the vast majority of users who fit under the 8192 default limit,
increasing the value will have no adverse effects.

Bug #77106 is not caused by this, that is another bug that was fixed in
Beagle 0.2.14, I believe.

** Also affects: procps (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided
