I'm currently using programs that find files that are the same, and hardlink them together: http://marc.merlins.org/perso/linux/post_2012-05-01_Handy-tip-to-save-on-inodes-and-disk-space_-finddupes_-fdupes_-and-hardlink_py.html 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 -- "A mouse is a device used to point at the xterm you want to type in" - A.S.R.
