Yes, it doesn't make a difference for me, I still see the same O(n²) behaviour in `rm -r`. I've sent an email "O(n^2) performance of rm -r" to bug-coreut...@gnu.org just now, unfortunately I can't link it yet because the mailman archive doesn't show it yet. It should appear soon on http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2017-12/threads.html. ---------- _______________________________________ 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
