There is also the possibility to write a really small daemon (less than |
| 9 |
50 lines of C) that registers with inotify for the entire fs and |
| 10 |
journals the file activity to a sqlite-db. |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
A simple sql-query from a cron/bash script will then give you all the |
| 13 |
files to delete with paths. |

It will probably be less work to write the daemon than to do 40 |
| 16 |
fs-benchmarks - and the result will be the most efficient. |
