Rails 3.2 ships with a simple FileWatcher that only reloads your app if any of the files changed.

Besides, it also provides a mechanism to hook up your own file watcher mechanism, so we can use tools like FSSM that hooks into Mac OS X fsevents. This is an example on how to hook your own mechanism (you need Rails master, soon to be Rails 3.2):

Copy the 2_file_watcher.rb file below to lib/file_watcher.rb
Add the following inside your Application in config/application.rb

if Rails.env.development?
