I am using a command line application which creates a great amount of intermediate artifacts to the file system and then at some point deletes them.On environments where storage space is constrained this can pose a problem.I'd like to know if there's a tool which would allow me to run the application under and then summarise the changes that were done to the filesystem when it terminates (mainly amount of created/deleted files and their sizes).I know of dtrace and iosnoop, but am too much of a novice to build the described summary out of them.
How to measure changes to the filesystem done by a certain application?
filesystems;osx;tracing;dtrace
