I'm a long time user of ncdu and derivatives - how's this different?

  Hadn't heard of ncdu before, but at a first glance, it does look very similar. Purge doesn't do all of its calculation ahead of time, but when you enter the directory (and uses concurrency). The rendering libraries are also different (ncurses vs. termbox), and Purge is written in Go, so it'll easily compile for just about any platform. Thanks for the reference to ncdu; good to know about that!
