Follow-up Comment #3, bug #51506 (project findutils): > Which system test would be representative to show that reduced file names > can result in nicer run time characteristics because of less data transfer?
Whom do you ask? For optimization issues, people usually come with a certain, reproducible case to point out a bottleneck. With that (only), we could start working on it. After all, this sounds more like the discussion to strip off the leading "./" part when doing a bare "find" ... which is usually for cosmetic reasons in end-user output. But even then, this could be avoided with "-printf '%P\n'". Back to Eric's question: what is wrong with "-printf '%f\n'"? _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?51506> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/
