I tried rmlint, fdupes, dupeguru and fslint if you have a GUI, dupeguru and FSlint are great.

rmlint have a GUI but the find duplicate where it's not such as example I have a bunch of files with the same name but not the same content (Dockerfile and docker-compose.yml) in different folder and rmlint consider them duplicate. ... and I didn't find the way to exclude these directory

on the others hand; I merge a Downloads directory from different computers and backups which I know it content duplicate, but rmlint find nothing; maybe because it have too much files...

anyway I understand why it's blazing fast, because it's just don't do the job properly ;)
