No indexing. No waiting. A Rust-native engine by Sky, LLC — open source, MPL-2.0. A benchmark-driven NTFS search engine for Windows. UFFS reads the Master File Table directly, builds a compact persisted index, and keeps large NTFS estates searchable through a background daemon. Proven on a real 7-drive, 25.9M-record Windows system; scale-ceiling tested to 100.4M records with offline MFT clones (v0.5.4 baseline; v0.5.120 current): - 68.5 s COLD — raw MFT read + compact index build (v0.5.71, flat ± 4 % vs v0.5.4) - 5.7 s WARM CACHE — restart from serialized cache (v0.5.62/v0.5.71, −17 % vs v0.5.4) - 0–3 ms daemon-side for targeted queries — exact/prefix/ext/substring, unchanged from v0.5.4 - 17–39 ms CLI end-to-end for targeted single-drive queries on v0.5.120 (Windows process spawn + query; v0.5.71 measured 29–32 ms) - vs Everything on v0.5.120 : UFFS wins 30/30 head-to-head cells at p50 across four drives + the combined index, median ratio 0.36× ( 2.8× faster) — see the benchmark hub and the full v0.5.120 report UFFS is built for exact filename, path, and metadata search at scales where directory walking, shell search, and some automation surfaces become the bottleneck. It is open source, written in Rust, and designed first for deterministic local search; CLI, TUI, API, and MCP are all interfaces on top of the same engine.
