Hi All. I currently have a problem on my backup server with very large number of small files in a large number of directories. I would like to delete them as fast as possible. Currently I use: rsync -a --delete /empty_directory/ dir_to_clean/ I've read that rsync will be faster than rm or find. Can you recommend something? I use an ext4 filesystem. Best regards, Rafal.
