This means the rm command will be invoked once to delete multiple files, instead of being invoked to delete just 1 file. Fewer subprocesses created so if there are a lot of files, it should take less time.01:00:40 Jeremy-Sending Bulk SMSSendPulse01:08:01 Jeff Lambert-Not Authorized to Send Apple Events to Finder01:14:18 Dick-Mojave Upgrade Won’t Take01:20:22 Brian-Secure-Erasing a NAS DriveMacFUSEext4fuse01:30:26 MGG 750 OuttroThe Mac Geek Gab iPhone appActive MGG Sponsors and Coupon Codes ListYou’re downloading today’s show from CacheFly’s networkBackBeat Media Podcast Network
