IbDOpusExt is an open-source plugin that can be used in DOv12 for Calculating folder size quickly.
URL: GitHub - Chaoses-Ib/IbDOpusExt: An extension for Directory Opus.
As shown in the GIFs, with 200+ folders, it took a total of 11 seconds to calculate the folder size in DO13 using Everything, while in DO12 using IbDOpusExt, it took just less than one second.
So, is it possible to be as fast as IbDOpusExt, or even faster than it?
DO 13.0.54
DO 12 using IbDOpusExt
It doesn't look like Everything is being used in the first example.
What does Preferences / Folders / Folder Sizes look like?
Which version of Everything are you using?
This is my setting:
when there are many folders (200+), My test results show that:
If EVERYTHING is not enabled, the SIZE display is very fast, however, calculating the single folder size of large subfolders (with many files), will take more time.
If EVERYTHING is enabled, calculating the single folder size of large subfolders (with many files) will be much faster, however, the SIZE display may be very slow, one by one.
it was slow for me two or three updates ago with Everything's check turned on, now it's fast as it should
FWIW, only 1.4 is officially supported or tested, since 1.5 is an alpha and doesn’t have a published API yet.
1.5 reportedly works if configured to act like 1.4, but if you’re having problems it’s worth trying the real 1.4.
I don’t know which setting that is as it’s in another language.
sorry, my version can not change language to English..
You can use this zip to have a test.

my setting is this:
This time, I use everything v1.4, and it is still so slow after pressing F5 to fresh.
