Inotify is kinda awesome, really. The inotifywait cmd exposes an ignore pattern (like gitignore, rsync, etc). It would be GREAT if IDEs let us grab that, too! Preeeety sure, my limit is being reached because of the trillion files in my node_modules lol

Yea ist main suspect. But how would vs code know if we installed new module to get exports from it?
Could always fall-back to the universal polling mechanism (eg check ignored dirs every 3-ish seconds).
Alt, my Intellij has pre- and post-scripts that run after certain commands. Those could exec only after
npm **
.This is purely theoretical, though 🤷♀️ (unless someone on here is building the IDEs)

Rough estimate 😉
(But... Now I'm absolutely going to run a file count on my node_modules when I get back to the office)
Update:
But, to be fair: That's from a pretty large project with several microservice modules in it.
