The one thing it +can do a whole lot better than the old version is stay on one file system - the +single most most requested feature. Plus, it's way faster for large directory +trees - scanning an entire Linux file system no longer takes 30+ +minutes. Rather, it's about 2-3 minutes: The old version seemed to have +problems with system buffer thrashing due to too many directories open for +reading at one time - the new version uses an internal queue and keeps only one +directory open. + +For more details, see the KDirStat home page at + + http://kdirstat.sourceforge.net/ + + + +Stefan Hundhammer <sh@suse.de> +2002-05-10 + |
