Hi just FYI, only rescanning files that have changed since the last scan is
a feature I've been working on in duperemove for some time now. I have some
rudimentary code that works which will be going into master branch in a week
or so (I wanted to finish it this week but other things have kept me busy).

But anyway that should help with the lack of intelligence on what files to
scan.
