Linux-Inotify2 (1.2)

The Catalyst Restarter was recently improved and in the process it seems to consume more CPU. Installing this module was recommended on #catalyst for Linux kernels 2.6.13 or greater. It reduced CPU memory spikes from 22-25% to about 7-8% in my non-formal tests.

I highly recommend it.

This module works fine and integrates nicely with your event loop of choice. I am not sure why it only has two stars.

Linux-Inotify2 (1.2)

Documentation still needs work, although it is getting better. Lines that are confusing are lines like; "cancel this watcher: remove no further events". Does that mean,

- Remove, no further events
- Remove events that don't go further
- Remove further events

Also some of the code itself might not be considered "Modern Perl," one could replace the printf * foreach @array with a print map { } @array for example.

But all in all, thanks for doing this Marc, I'm glad to have this module on CPAN.

I would like someone in the documentation to point out more of the differences between Linux::Inotify and Linux::Inotify2. The documentation lacks too much information in both of them.

Documentation could be a tad clearer when it comes to non blocking usage. The example given in the distribution is not helpfull.

Usefull module that deserves a more friendly author.
