About:
Freedups searches for identical files in the directories you specify and hard-links them together, freeing up drive space without losing performance.

Release focus: Major feature enhancements

Changes:
This release features a rewrite in Perl, the identification of duplicates without forking, cached MD5 sums, and a drastically improved algorithm, which is orders of magnitude faster than the bash version.
