Would mv to .Trash be as fast? Deleting a file/directory on nautilus
moves it the trash bin. I do not know what a delete on konqueror
does. But there has to be a command line

I have a directory called "somedir"
Inside this directory there are thousands of subdirectories(20,000+)
and even more number of small files(100,000+)
If I do a \rm -rf somedir, it takes hours.
Is there a way to quickly delete this directory.
Currently I use Konqueror and it does the job more quick
