No, not anymore than the next guy I guess but have grown tired of the |

hefty waits when doing fs intensive things like du. Space isn't |
| 10 |
really a big problem here. |

Well, yeah. I now how to do something like that. What I'm asking is |
| 17 |
if there is some simpler way. Over time I've ended up with a somewhat |
| 18 |
complicated file system. Having run out of space or changed existing |
| 19 |
dir to partitions or whatever. So it would be a bit more complicated |
| 20 |
than what you described. |
