Even if the files are huge, the size of the folder doesn't change. If I create 100,000 5 byte files or 100,000 1mb files, the folder size is about 2mb after I delete all the files.
However, it should be noted that when using much bigger files ( 200mb+ ), the folder size can be slightly bigger, but it is not the size of the deleted files. I added a modified script. lsof | grep deleted shows nothing. ** Attachment added: "Reproduce using 1mb files." https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1474493/+attachment/4428985/+files/urandom-test -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1474493 Title: Directory size grows when creating/deleting thousands of files To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1474493/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
