I'm currently using programs that find files that are the same, and
hardlink them together:

hardlink.py actually seems to be the faster (memory and CPU) one event
though it's in python.
I can get others to run out of RAM on my 8GB server easily :(

Bedup should be better, but last I tried I couldn't get it to work.
It's been updated since then, I just haven't had the chance to try it
again since then.

Please post what you find out, or if you have a hardlink maker that's
better than the ones I found :)

Thanks,
Marc
