I agree. I see an advantage in using the term "Size on disk": it is well
known from Windows (
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/hh148159.aspx ). But indeed,
it does not always apply. It could be mentioned in a parenthesis and/or
in quotes nevertheless to facilitate search.
Perhaps a better shorthand string would be "Allocation"?
That's even shorter, and it conveys what's going on.
Oh, good question. We currently have:
Size: 54 Blocks: 8 IO Block: 4096
If we want to display the allocated size too, "Size" for "real"(?) size
becomes clearly ambiguous. How about having a line for size? Something like
Size Real: 54 Allocated: 4096
