The headline feature is 40% more scanning speed in my particular scenario. More cores on Linux should now scale much better as well, so I wouldn't be surprised if it's even faster for you.
New Features
-
Replace jwalk with a work-stealing directory walker for up to 40% more scan speed
Replace jwalk and Rayon with a crate-local walker built on crossbeam-deque
and standard-library threads. Directory reads and metadata collection run on
stealable worker queues, while a bounded channel limits completed batches held
ahead of the iterator. The walker never follows symlinks and no longer sorts
entries because consumers sort their final results where needed.Provide two delivery modes on the shared implementation: aggregate scans and
recursive deletion use completion order for maximum throughput and continuous
progress; interactive traversal uses parent-first delivery so ancestor sizes
and entry counts grow throughout the scan. Recursive deletion remains parallel
through scoped standard-library workers.Raise the macOS default from three to eight filesystem workers based on
warm-cache measurements.
