MacDirStat v0.5.0
A blazing fast disk usage visualizer for macOS — inspired by WinDirStat, built in Rust.
Performance
MacDirStat is 12x faster than Disk Inventory X. Scanning a directory with 800,000 files (215 GB), MacDirStat completes in 2.6 seconds compared to 32 seconds for Disk Inventory X.
This speed comes from getting bulk file metadata directly from the kernel instead of stat-ing files one at a time.
Features
- Treemap visualization with cushion shading (WinDirStat-style)
- Directory tree with keyboard navigation
- Extension statistics showing disk usage by file type
- Interactive breadcrumb — click to scan a different directory
- Delete files directly from the app (⌘Delete to skip confirmation)
- Reveal in Finder for selected files
- Native macOS About panel with version info
Install
Download the DMG from the assets below, open it, and drag MacDirStat to your Applications folder.
Or install via cargo:
cargo install macdirstat
Note: The DMG is not code-signed. On first launch, right-click the app and select "Open" to bypass Gatekeeper.
