Filesystem tree info

submitted by bonghits4jeebus to Linux 11 monthsMay 29, 2023 02:14:29 ago (+1/-0)     (Linux)

Is there a filesystem that, given a simple hierarchical layout of files and directories (ignoring links and whatnot), can answer basically instantly the question of the contribution of a subtree to the total FS usage? Say it's an average server root FS of 2TB full.

You can get this info on Windows and Linux with WinDirStat and kdirstat/gdirstat respectively. Generally it runs for a good while to produce the tree. I was wondering if any FS made this computation much quicker.
