If one is to create a script to ensure that the files on the
filesystem are backed upon before removing them, what is the best
data-store model for doing so?
Obviously, if you have > 1,000,000 files in the catalog and you need
to check each of those, you do not want to bplist -B -C -R 999999
/path/to/file/1.txt for each file. However, you do not want to grep
"1" one_gigabyte_catalog.txt either as there is really too much
overhead in either case.
I have a few ideas that involves neither of these, but I was wondering
if anyone out there had already done something similar to this that
was high performance?
Justin.
