Best value for max_user_watches

#1 Post by fred44nl »

by default the Inotify value for max_user_watches seems to be 8192
but that gives complaints, e.g. from Minidlna
so, I doubled it and again and again, which gives 65536
now there are no more complaints.
is this value extremely high ??
or can I increase it even more, in case this would be required ??
