Tips for linux real time detection setting

Question:
We have plan to let WAA monitor tons of files.
Any tips for linux real time detection setting?

Answer:
Can you refer and set following options.

1. max_queued_events

- Settings recommendation: 3x max_user_watches +20% buffer
e.g. 90,000 is fine when 25,000 files will be monitored.

2. max_user_watches and --auto-watch-limit

- Settings recommendation: 120% of expected monitored files for max_user_watches.
e.g. 30,000 is fine when 25,000 files will be monitored.
- Using --auto-watch-limit is highly recommended if customer’s version has it.
