webpack dev server leading to freezing of the system
I was getting errors on using npm start in my react application. which goes like thisENOSPC system limit for file watcher reached
I updated my npm and node versions but still i was getting this problem. After a little research i got to know that there is something known as inotify which watches different files and i need to increase its file watching limit. I used this codeecho fs.inotify.max_user_watches=524288 | sudo tee -a /etc/sysctl.conf && sudo sysctl -p
in my terminal to increase the file watcher limit. After this i was succesfully able to do npm start and got my project running in localhost:3000, But this slowed my system incredibly, and it freezed every now and then. I highly suspect this is due to increasing number of file watchers. Is it the case if yes what should i do now??
