Simce you have Biggest, also try PDU https://github.com/KSXGitHub/parallel-disk-usage
Gives you a cli graph of what folders files are taking up largest percent of space. It runs parallel processes to get the info, so it reports it super fast.
I've seen this before. It's a nice visualization. As for the "biggest" script, its not as slow as you think. It's a single du call (alongside cheap sort, head and tac) and therefore quite fast. In example in my ~/Documents directory is almost 1 TB big and running time biggest Documents executes it in almost 2 seconds (for the first time after a reboot). Subsequent calls are quicker, 0.6s and then 0.07s. Edit: And BTW, it's a mechanical HDD, not SSD too.
Also I like the output of the files or folders and I can even use commandline arguments like biggest Documents/*.txt in example. So for me this is enough and exactly what I need.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
