Opening so many files #720

Description

@romaninsh

It becomes a huge annoyance after a while. Too many open files:

  • symlinks in the projects
  • large watched folders
  • new files are not being tracked

Please refactor CodeKit using Filesystem Events API: https://developer.apple.com/legacy/library/samplecode/Watcher/Introduction/Intro.html

You can monitor new file creation or file change with no overheads at all. No need for re-scans.

I thought you would add this eventually, it's really needed, otherwise operating system becomes too unstable, other apps stop working and reboot is required.
