  • Go Find Duplicates: blazingly-fast simple-to-use tool to find duplicate files
    14 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 29 Aug 2021
    I use and test assorted duplicate finders regularly.

    fdupes is the classic (going way way back) but it's really very slow, not worth using anymore.

    The four I know are worth trying these days (depending on data set, hardware, file arrangement and other factors, any one of these might be fastest for a specific use case) are https://github.com/jbruchon/jdupes , https://github.com/pauldreik/rdfind , https://github.com/jvirkki/dupd , https://github.com/sahib/rmlint

    Had not encountered fclones before, will give it a try.
