I have watcher code that looks something like this:
However, with the current watcher implementation the watcher_update() thread will peg CPU as the poll() call in should_reload() is non-blocking. I've changed this to a blocking call as well as removing the should_reload() call in create_subscriber_process(), which at the moment doesn't really do anything but would block the main thread if turned into a blocking call.
Unless I'm misunderstanding something, this is the only way I can get the watcher to work properly :).
