find inode

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I know I asked this before, but I'm still looking for a superior solution.

I want to be able to find files/directories by their inode number. I know I can use 'find -inum' but this is excruciatingly slow at first. Repeated 'find's are quicker so it must cache the data, but initially it is very slow. I guess it must be simply doing a file by file scan until it matches the number, which is way slower than 'find'ing by name.

I need to find the actual path from the inode number, can anyone suggest a faster way of doing it?
