That's what I do, actually. I've provided two "listing" functions
(customizable):
- disk-usage--directory-size-with-emacs: use `directory-files-and-attributes'
recursively everywhere. This is portable but very slow.
- disk-usage--directory-size-with-du: This uses `directory-files-and-attributes'
on the root folder to get the size of its direct subfiles, then `du -sb' on
the remaining subfolders. This is much faster.
Makes sense?
