 We've had reports that for sufficiently large and/or interdependent projects, you may run into OOMs using this approach.

 - If you use project references, TypeScript will not automatically use project references to resolve files. This means that you will have to add each referenced tsconfig to the `project` field either separately, or via a glob.
 
+- Note that using wide globs `**` in your `parserOptions.project` may cause performance implications. Instead of globs that use `**` to recursively check all folders, prefer paths that use a single `*` at a time. For more info see [#2611](https://github.com/typescript-eslint/typescript-eslint/issues/2611).

 - TypeScript will ignore files with duplicate filenames in the same folder (for example, `src/file.ts` and `src/file.js`). TypeScript purposely ignore all but one of the files, only keeping the one file with the highest priority extension (the extension priority order (from highest to lowest) is `.ts`, `.tsx`, `.d.ts`, `.js`, `.jsx`). For more info see #955.
 
 - Note that if this setting is specified and `createDefaultProgram` is not, you must only lint files that are included in the projects as defined by the provided `tsconfig.json` files. If your existing configuration does not include all of the files you would like to lint, you can create a separate `tsconfig.eslint.json` as follows:
