I think you're referring to the following snippet:

 # for Event:
 Event->io (fd =>$inotify->fileno, poll => 'r', cb => sub { $inotify->
+poll });
 # for Glib:
 add_watch Glib::IO $inotify->fileno, in => sub { $inotify->poll };
 # manually:
 1 while $inotify->poll;

These are three separate ways of creating a loop for $inotify->poll. Yup, I tried all three ways. I'm using the third method to isolate the issue.

Thanks though
