jekyll: Jekyll server slowing down with every regenerate

Hi Guys, I’ve noticed and issue where jekyll serve is getting continually slower with every save.

One example:

      Regenerating: 1 file(s) changed at 2015-11-03 16:21:31 ...done in 6.850102 seconds.
      Regenerating: 1 file(s) changed at 2015-11-03 16:21:40 ...done in 7.496968 seconds.
      Regenerating: 1 file(s) changed at 2015-11-03 16:21:48 ...done in 8.425564 seconds.
      Regenerating: 1 file(s) changed at 2015-11-03 16:21:58 ...done in 9.104572 seconds.
      Regenerating: 1 file(s) changed at 2015-11-03 16:22:08 ...done in 9.668644 seconds.
      Regenerating: 1 file(s) changed at 2015-11-03 16:22:18 ...done in 11.160874 seconds.

This is me saving the same file a couple of times without actually changing anything. This basically happens with any type of change I do (JS, includes, layouts or posts/pages).

I’m running jekyll 2.5.3 with bundler on os-x. Any more information you need feel I’ll gladly provide.

For me the solution was to gem install wdm (on Windows 10) so the issue seems to be related to change polling.
