Hello,
I am not quite sure if this is appropriate question to this question here.
3-4 days I wrote some program which had some problem, therefore created
about 1 million small files in one directory. 3 days back I have the comman
\rm -rf <Directoryname and still the code running. When I see the "top" it
shows
that only 1% CPU is utilized.
I am not sure where things are going wrong. There is no other activity other
than
\rm -rf command. Do why does "remove" takes so much time. I am sure that
creation didn't take that much time.
