How to delete files quicker than rm -rf?
- by Byakugan
Is there any way how to delete folder/files quicker than with command rm -rf?
It seems my disc is filled with bilions of files (sessions of php5) which were not deleted in cron so I need to delete them manually but it takes hours and it is still not helping reducing the amount. Thank you.
My command: rm -rf /var/lib/php5/*
Tried also these commands:
find /var/lib/php5 -name "sess_*" -exec rm {} \;
And
perl -e 'chdir "/var/lib/php5/" or die; opendir D, "."; while ($n = readdir D) { unlink $n }'
