readorder version 1.0.0 has been released.

gem install readorder

http://copiousfreetime.rubyforge.org/readorder

Readorder orders a list of files into a more effective read order.

You would possibly want to use readorder in a case where you know ahead
of time that you have a large quantity of files on disc to process. You
can give that list off those files and it will report back to you the
order in which you should process them to make most effective use of
your disc I/O.

Given a list of filenames, either on the command line or via stdin,
readorder will output the filenames in an order that should increase
the I/O throughput when the files corresponding to the filenames are
read off of disc.

The output order of the filenames can either be in inode order or
physical disc block order. This is dependent upon operating system
support and permission level of the user running readorder.
