I run datasette on large databases > 75gb and the startup time is a bit slow for me even with -i --inspect-file options. Here's a quick sketch for a plugin that will reload db's in a folder that you set for the plugin in metadata.json. If you request /-reload-db new db's will be added. (You probably want to implement some authentication for this =) ) \r\n\r\nhttps://gist.github.com/Segerberg/b96a0e0a5389dce2396497323cda7042\r\n", "reactions": "{\"total_count\": 1, \"+1\": 0, \"-1\": 0, \"laugh\": 0, \"hooray\": 1, \"confused\": 0, \"heart\": 0, \"rocket\": 0, \"eyes\": 0}", "issue": {"value": 924748955, "label": "Serve all db files in a folder"}, "performed_via_github_app": null} {"html_url": "https://github.com/simonw/datasette/issues/1380#issuecomment-967747190", "issue_url": "https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/datasette/issues/1380", "id": 967747190, "node_id": "IC_kwDOBm6k_c45rqZ2", "user": {"value": 813732, "label": "glasnt"}, "created_at": "2021-11-13T00:47:26Z", "updated_at": "2021-11-13T00:47:26Z", "author_association": "CONTRIBUTOR", "body": "Would it make sense to run datasette with a fswatch/inotifywait on a folder, then?
