Product Description:

WhatSize is a simple tool that allows the user to quickly measure the size in bytes of a given folder and all subfolders and files within it. You would be surprised at how many useless files might be laying around on your hard disks. The files and folders are automatically sorted by size, with the biggest sizes first. While the app is measuring a folder the user can browse the files within that folder and immediately see the size in bytes. Hidden files, cache files, directories will all show up with their corresponding size. This application is similar to the ancient NeXTSTEP, DarkForest. Once the measuring of a folder has ended the user can also view the information by filtering for particular file sizes or types. The user can also move unwanted files and folder in the corresponding Trash bin similar to the Finder's Delete button.

What's new in this version:

Major fixes in memory usage. For example while measuring a Volume with 350GB worth of data the app will consume 250MB less of memory. Minor speed improvements as well. Improvements to the Delocalizer engine.

The information provided by VT as of 2009-03-04 is completely useless as far as 'all time rating' (2.0), 'downloads all versions' (285 ), and number of feedbacks (only 2) are concerned.

WhatSize ReviewPlease remove 'clueless' protection mode - Version: 4.4.1, 12/8/2008 01:55PM PST

Every once in a while I get the "We have determined that it is not safe to remove the selected items" window - which, really, makes this program useless for me. I can understand that some users might be clueless and require to be protected from themselves, but please make this optional! Having to go through Terminal to delete these files really makes the program not worthwhile!
