Notable updates

Parallel scanning
    Ncdu 2.5 adds support for parallel scanning, but it’s not enabled by default. To give it a try, run with -t8 to scan with 8 threads. If you’re running an unusual setup, such as networked storage, odd filesystems, complex RAID configurations, etc, I’d love to hear about the performance impact of this new feature.1 Feedback is welcome on the issue tracker or to projects@yorhel.nl.
Binary export
    Ncdu 2.6 adds a new binary export format that better works with parallel scanning, offers built-in compression and supports browsing directory trees that are too large to fit in memory. To give it a try, use the -O flag instead of -o.
Colors
    Ncdu has had color support since version 1.13. Colors were enabled by default in 1.17 and 2.0, and then later disabled again in 1.20 and 2.4 because the text was not legible in all terminal configurations. If you do prefer the colors, add --color=dark to your config file. Maybe at some point in the future we’ll have colors that are readable in every setup.
