Deleting a python file taking too long
I am deleting a virtual environment I created using virtualenv.
rm -rf env_py2
It takes a very long time to delete it, like tens of hours. In the directory, the deletion of *.pyc files is immediate, but the *.py takes long time, like minutes for every file.
I can delete any folder, any file that is not inside virtual environment almost immediately.
Can anyone help me understand what is happening?
linux bash shell rm virtualenv
