dust VS termgraph

Try using dust https://github.com/bootandy/dust

Folks open to using gdu might like to try dust (6k stars), or even erdtree (1.4k stars) which is too recent to show up on lists like this and still a bit behind on stars. A lot of people seem to use starship (33k stars) though I'm personally oldschool on prompts. There are many other items on that list I'm not motivated to check.

The first thought I had was to use rayon for this. And looking at some prior art that does pretty much the exact same thing, it does indeed use rayon.

The dust CLI command (made with Rust) can do this too.

How does this compare to dust?

Happened to me this morning, something filled up my drive in minutes. I used dust[1] to look for large files while it was happening but knowing what was doing it would've been a big help.

dust is also really nice.

`sparklines`[1] is good for an overall low-res view. `termgraph`[2] is sometimes better for a higher-res, more capable view (but can be finicky about the data.)

I use TermGraph (https://github.com/mkaz/termgraph) a lot. Impress my boss / coworkers with it. It can easily convert your tables / numbers to super cool graphs on the command line and being text, the result can be copy pasted into the emails / chats. I've shown a demo here: https://youtu.be/86V5amp1u7U

We'll use termgraph, "A command-line tool that draws basic graphs in the terminal," :
