Totally agree. Have had horrible experiences with inotify. I was able to modify https://github.com/iovisor/bcc/blob/master/tools/filelife.py and get a good alternative to find new files.

It still isn't polished and haven't tested it enough so will release it back to community when its ready for beta.
