The following ld_preload can help in some cases. Mutt has this hack
encoded in for maildir directories, which helps.
It doesn't work very reliable for me.
For some reason, it hangs for me sometimes (doesn't remove any files, rm
-rf just stalls), or segfaults.
You can go the low-tech route (assuming your file names don't have spaces in
them)
find . -printf "%i %p\n" | sort -n | awk '{print $2}' | xargs rm
Why should it make a difference?
Does "find" find filenames/paths faster than "rm -r"?
Or is "find once/remove once" faster than "find files/rm files/find
files/rm files/...", which I suppose "rm -r" does?
