Well, Now I discovered https://gitlab.com/worthwhileit/bsd/fsnotifier which is used at FreeBSD.
It requires some work but can be used on OpenBSD as well.
Here a port and update for devel/intellij to enjoy it.
Some medium size Java project requires to tune openfiles and kern.maxfiles
to value large than 60k
Lucas, do you think we need it?
