Livereload + lots of changes = bad times #68

Closed Ross-Hunter closed 7 years ago

Not sure if this is a livereload issue or middleman-livereload issue, but I have not experienced this when using livereload in any other context.

When I make a bunch of changes, say, switching from one branch to another where I have moved a folder with 100+ files in it, livereload kicks off a page reload per file, which usually results in me having to launch activity monitor and kill ruby, otherwise it will reload 100+ times in a row. Terminating the middleman process via ctrl + c doesn't stop it.

I haven't seen anyone else complaining about it, so it's possible I'm just not configured properly.

Hmmm, maybe we can throttle the event.

I'm doing some issue-gardening 🌿🌷🌾 and came across this issue.

Sorry that this has lingered for quite a while! I'd suggest either closing this issue or submitting a PR with a patch to improve this. Sorry I cannot offer anything better at the moment!

(this repo is maintained by a few people contributing their free time, unfortunately we can't solve every issue on our own, so help from others is needed for some of the more exotic issues that crops up)

This doesn't appear to be a big issue for most people, and I no longer have this use-case anymore so I'm happy to prune this issue :)
