So combining the two approaches I think that this may be a better solution?<br>
<br>
tempdirname=`mktemp -d`<br>
mv <dir> $tempdirname<br>
mkdir <dir><br>
<br>
# rm -rf <tempdirname><br>
mkdir empty<br>
rsync -a --delete empty/ $tempdirname<br>
rmdir empty $tempdirname<br>
<br>
<br>

Ok, this is a heavy misinterpretation of my true intention.<br>

<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
I did _not_ intend to delete particularly fast, the sole idea of mv & mkdir<br>
was to come up with the same but empty dir for _users_ as fast as possible.<br>
And only _then_ throw away the old, probably unneeded original content.<br>
So I thought the basic admin idea was to give the user as fast as possible<br>
what he wants (empty dir) and deal with the rest cleanup later on.<br>

This were what I were trying to said above. :) Sorry, my english is very limited :(<br>

And that's why I named it an admin question. Do something to make the user<br>
happy, but indeed something completely different than what the user thought<br>
was going on.<br>

And whatever idea you come up, you will not have your dir as<br>
fast empty shown to the user as me with mv&mkdir :-)<br>

Yes, that is why i try to combine both.<br>

And btw, this is exactly what I do suggest for delete/undelete implementation:<br>
move the deleted something to a shadow dir where content is expelled based on<br>
its age iff the real world tree needs more space.<br>

I agree with this also.<br>
