Gdu is a fast disk usage analyzer with a terminal user interface, written in Go. It uses parallel processing to quickly scan directories and report which files and folders consume the most space.
Use cases
- find what is taking up disk space
- analyze disk usage from the terminal
- clean up large files and directories
- visualize folder sizes with a TUI
- fast disk usage scan on SSD
- check directory sizes on a server over ssh
When to choose
- you want a fast ncdu-like tool with parallel scanning
- you need a single static binary that runs on Linux, macOS, or Windows
- you prefer a terminal UI for interactive disk cleanup
- you want non-interactive output for scripts or CI
When to avoid
- you need a graphical disk usage tool with charts
- you need network or cloud storage analysis
- you want deep file content inspection rather than size reporting
