windirstat currently doesn't take 3min to index 500k+ files on an 8x8tb drive raidz2 that's 90% full. When I stopped using windoratat 3ish years ago it took a few minutes to index the same array. I think you might he using an old version, or have an issue with your storage. |

It took almost 5 minutes and reports almost 2M items, 1.45M files and 465k subdirs...
I don't know that there's anything wrong with my disk, windirstat has always been slow when I ran it on my windows installation. Since it doesn't cheat, it goes slow. I will say, while it was reading, task manager showed a high read rate and a high write rate, and I dunno why, it's Windows (10); not that going through a convoluted filesystem is particularly fast anywhere else.
