I agree, and I went to the web site for Inotifywatch.  But this seems to be more of a statistical tool, or that's what I see from the examples.  Which in an of itself is powerful tool and thanks for making me awayre of it.  But the next big question that is going to be asked is who did it.  I'll look some more at it and see if it can answer that question,  if it can with very little overhead, then this would almost be a mandatory tool on most enterprise systems.
