There's got to be some `find ... | gzip | wc -c` magic that can be
done here but I haven't found it as yet.
I'd say your example would be spot on, except use xargs gzip
Before I asked I tried the following in my home directory, containing a
bunch of normal stuff.
$ find . -type f | xargs gzip -q - | wc -c
After a time and a lot of crunching it returned 60. Obviously wrong, given:
$ du -s
476469
$ find | wc -l
9503
Any thoughts?
