Calculating file / folder delete speed in Files per second

Here is a little screenshot which I would like to share.

Recently I obtained a trail DVD of Adobe CS4 Master collection. For faster installation and other testing purpose, I copied all the data in to my hard drive. When I tried to delete the files, I found that because there are so many files, Windows is calculeting and displaying the deleting speed in Files per second rather than usual bytes (MB or KB) per second.

Maybe it’s some problem with the theme. Or the pages are too heavy. Check your resource usage.

BTW, don’t see you at Digit much. Ssup?

At present running under a 1 GB (RAM) Hybrind service of wiredtree.com and theme is also some thing I am using since coupe of months now.. Service graph also doesnt show any change than usual.. Although RAM suage are high but they are like that all the time :P

So, hmm.. Still wondering what exactly went wrong there :(

Hello Dinesh,

Thanks.
