I have a distinct bias towards Java apps because they're usually slow, ugly, non-Mac-like, etc., but this was a pleasant surprise.
While there are certain column list behaviors and other bits and bobs that annoyed me, such as the peculiarly basic and vastly unMac file dialog and the very unMac... kinda ugly "toolbar" icons, in most ways that really count it does it's job more than adequately.
It scanned one of my larger, more cluttered drives very quickly, and I must admit JDR's simple sorting, graphing and statistic functions and displays are nice. It has a surprisingly rich set of prefs.
While the appearance themes technically aren't terribly important, they're a great idea for a cross-platform app, and i'm sure had i been forced to look at icons and heirarchical lists that looked like windoze, i'd have torn into the app on that account.
I own DaisyDisk and I suppose i'll be sticking with it's OS X flash, but this unique little FREE app is impressive.

I've tried a few other similar programs but jdisk is far superior in my mind. Great pie chart of your disk .. then you can hit the top 50 button .... and boom! ... you can see exactly what's eating up your hard disk space.
I hope this app stays around .. it's worth paying for ...

Grand Perspective and Disk Inventory X, for example, may offer a prettier graphical display of one's hard drive but so what, they're not as functional.
This one's extremely intelligently designed.

It would be nice if there were some way to go from the file or directory listing to a finder window. Right now, after I find a huge directory to prune, I have to manually navigate to the same directory in the finder. It would be nice if there was a way to do that automagically.

The only problem is, its a bit slow. Took me an hour to scan my Hard Drive.

I cancelled it 11 hours into scanning though as it appeared to be partially frozen (the timer was still going, but the directory/file counter hadn't changed for at least 2 hours).
It would seem that it doesn't do well with huge mbox files -- which is a little curious since I would have thought it would have considered the mbox as a whole instead of looking at each e-mail inside it. Oh well.
