HowMuch
Have you ever asked yourself,
"How much space have I wasted
on *.ckpt and *.safetensors checkpoints?" 🤔 Say hello to HowMuch: Checking checkpoint wasted space since... well, now! 😄

It outputs:
The total storage capacity of each scanned drive or directory.
The space occupied by
.ckptand.safetensorsfiles.The free space available.
A neat bar chart visualizing the above data.
