IIRC, we did this when... something.. foggy memory. I *think* we're were trying to list the "files" by largest file first. Logical files which need to collate the part numbers into one "file" and yet we couldn't figure out a way to determine the "size" of a file without actually scanning it. In Unix however you can find the size (or at least the block's assigned) and roll the parts together into one "file" and then output File X is 800 Megabytes... The business point was, that in certain situations "We're running out of disk!" we needed to concentrate on pruning the largest files first. Will "Does that work for you?
