--- Comment #2 from Ben RUBSON <ben.rub...@gmail.com> 2013-12-19 15:50:22 UTC --- Paul, yes you're right, files have to be deleted on by one, but perhaps Rsync overhead could be skipped. I made some tests, I created a directory with 300k files in it. I deleted it with Rsync, and with rm command. I did this test several times. On my server, it took about 20 seconds with rm, about 40 seconds with Rsync. Of course this is just a test example, each of the top directories of my production backup are much bigger, impact is then more important. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.samba.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
