Nodemon too slow (with large folders) #2129

I lately figured delay is not the problem, but the restart speed. Is there any config for that? It takes a lot of time on large folders.

If you have a large folder with lots of files, those files need to be watched. There's usually a warning about this in the initial start up (or maybe is with verbose mode).

I'd recommend breaking up what nodemon is watching.
