> I’ve also used windirstat (I think that’s what it was called) years ago on Windows and Disk Inventory X on MacOS graphically. On Windows, the new hotness is WizTree, which rather than recursively calling directory listing functions, it directly reads and parses the file tables itself. This makes it orders of magnitude faster. I have a 2 TB hard drive full of a million files, and WizTree reads and parses it all in under a minute, whereas I can expect WinDirStat to take half an hour. |

My windows experience is really out of date. I knew NT4 and 2000 the best. Then I picked up 2008 for a while supporting small businesses. I don't hate it or anything, but am definitely deeper on Unixes and about equal on VMS that I supported as my NT4/2000 time. I'll work on whatever pays :).
