FISH version 0.0.3 beta with numerous improvements is now available for download. Expect to see trememdous performance increases in this release as well as many other improvements including the following:
Version 0.0.3 (second public release):
- This version is at least 30 times faster than version 0.0.2
- Implemented a new hash function
- Optimised the iterative function used to iterate files
- Time stamps are now included in database files as well as reports
- It is now possible to limit file selection to a specific size (calculating the digest of a 7GB vm image is a really bad idea)
- Restructured database files
- Restructured report files
- Introduced more logging to ensure that the user knows exactly which files were skipped (if they are too big according to the configuration)
If you find any bugs or have any ideas for improvement, please don’t hesiate to let me know.
FISH can be downloaded here: fish 0.0.3 (98). This is still a beta release so use at your own risk.
