TLUG, With this command I can find out the data size of the subdirectories in the specified folder: du -sh /directory/* With this next command, I can search a whole directory tree for individual files of 10MB or more: find /directory -size +10000k However, what I'd really like is a sort of combination of the two. I want to crawl through a whole directory tree, and find the directories that contain 10MB or more of files. When calculating the size of any one directory, I need to know just the total size of *files* in that directory, but not including the sizes of subdirectories in that total. In other words, what I'm trying to find are instances where a specific directory contains a zillion tiny files that add up to 10MB or more. Is there a way to do that? I hope my question is clear. Thanks for any advice. -- Dave M G
