[BTSync indexing keeps HDD awake]

Hello *,

I'm running a few instances of BTSync (all 1.1.70), with one of them on a backup server.

On this machine I see btsync indexing all the directories every 10 minutes or so.

If I correctly understand what's going on I could say the app is rescanning all my files (~130.000) on each check.

Is it possible to avoid these checks altogether, maybe using some sort of event-driven approach? inotify comes to my mind for Linux, others are needed for different OSs

I think this is important because at the moment my hard disk is always awake and spinning, while it could rest (read: save energy and noise) untill an event is raised (such as a modified file).

Thanks for your attention.
