Why are some files lost when I use your plugin?

[Stas B.]

My simple task:

gulp.task('images', () => {
    gulp.src('app/images/**/*')
        .pipe(gulp.dest('dist/images'))
        .pipe($.size({title: 'images', showFiles}))
});

If I run this task on a large number of files (46 or more), then this task does not process all files. They are not even copied to the dist folder.

Gulp plugins must be before gulp.dest as Gulp plugins are transform streams and must be piped to a writable stream. In your case here, you're not doing that, so when the buffer is full (45 files), it finishes.
