time to run task keep increasing

hi,

with this below time keep increasing with each compile step so it starts with 200 ms and keep going up to 1 second, 2 seconds,etc… i checked to see if only one files is passed and indeed it is

const paths = {
    clientScripts: [`src/client/**/*.js`],
    serverScripts: [`src/server/**/*.js`],
    html: `src/client/**/*.html`
}

let babelOptions = {
    presets: [`es2015`, `stage-1`, `stage-3`],
    plugins: [`transform-es2015-modules-commonjs`,
        `transform-decorators-legacy`,
        // `transform-es2015-typeof-symbol`,
        `typecheck`,
        `syntax-flow`,
        `transform-flow-strip-types`,
        [`transform-runtime`, {
            "polyfill": false,
            "regenerator": true
        }]
    ],
    sourceMaps: `inline`,
    sourceRoot: `./`
}

export default async function () {
 await this.watch(paths.clientScripts, `clientJs`);
}

export async function clientJs(file) {
    let source = file ? file : paths.clientScripts;
    let target = file ? `dist/` : `dist/client/`;
    await  this.source(source)
        .babel(babelOptions)
        .target(target);
}

@devmondo hahaha, good!.. I’ll look into it more. Not sure (yet) if usePolling should always be true on Windows, or if it’s just your Webstorm + Windows environment.

@lukeed holy god!!! it went from 1 second to 200 - 250 ms stable!!! and i made sure to modify file and save it multiple times aggressively. so yeah your suggestion works!
