Title: #5552: files: split update into batches
sumit-bose commented:
"""
So far when we talked about "batches" I thought we meant
"accumulating few consequent update events and processing in a single 'batch'
(once)" - to avoid an issue in a case user populates very large /etc/passwd with a
script.
Hi,
I'm sorry for not being more specific here. I meant `batch` in the sense we use it in
the refresh code.
In the patch there is an initiial delay, which can be used to wait some time for more
changes to the files before doing the real update.
But this PR aims to fix another valid issue - single operation during single update
taking > 3 * WD `timeout`s. I think we don't have a ticket for this issue.
Would you mind to open a suitable ticket and link it to related downstream tickets?
Thanks.
bye,
Sumit
