I'm at my wit's end. A runaway vim process filled up my disk, and I can't
figure out *where*. I had cleared space a few days ago, and then it filled up
again, when I found and killed the gvim zombie. I get quite different
answers from different tools as well :

df tells me I've used 36 Gbytes, that is, the whole disk.
Filesystem           1k-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/hdb1             38464340  36316120    194316 100% /home

But when I try to find where it has gone with du,

du -k /home yields :

 5708312        .

 total kb, or 6 Gb. Where is the other 30?
