Currently the program loops over the file contents of the VCSA file, essentially busy-waiting for changes. This can be improved by using inotify and will also reduce the CPU-Usage.

So Inotify does not work in a pseudo-fs. Unsurprisingly /dev is a pseudo-fs. So we must find a different method. Perhaps a small downtime of ~10ms when reading the file and no changes occurred?
