Hello

thanks for answering!
I tried to increase the fs.inotify.max_user_instances and now I must
wait if it helps.

But I can't understand, why this should made the differences.

* Form manual page:

       "max_user_instances
               This specifies an upper limit on the number of inotify
instances that can be created per real user ID"

I thought, for each instance a new file descriptor is created. and the
maximum I've seen was 10 ...
Or I'm wrong?


Thanks a lot,

Meike
