Serhiy Storchaka <storchaka+cpyt...@gmail.com> added the comment: I have tested shutil.rmtree() with a large number of files using modified benchmark from issue28564. For 400000 files it takes less than 5 seconds. From the comment to the coreutils benchmark (http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/coreutils.git/commit/?id=24412edeaf556a):
# Using rm -rf to remove a 400k-entry directory takes: # - 9 seconds with the patch, on a 2-yr-old system # - 350 seconds without the patch, on a high-end system (disk 20-30% faster) threshold_seconds=60 Running the coreutils benchmark gives the result 3 seconds on my computer. It seems to me that this issue have been fixed in the kernel. ---------- nosy: +serhiy.storchaka _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue32453> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
