463caf8 by Guy Harris (guy@xxxxxxxxxxxx):

    Discuss alternatives to polling all the recent files every 2 seconds.
    
    Somebody asked about repeated SMB traffic when running the Qt Wireshark:
    
    https://ask.wireshark.org/questions/45036/permanent-smb2-traffic-with-1997
    
    and that's due to said polling.  On the main desktop platforms (Windows,
    OS X, Linux) we can use QFileSystemWatcher plus, on Windows and OS X,
    some additional stuff to check for unmounts (and get FreeBSD as a
    freebie, as it works the same as OS X), and avoid timeout-based polling.
