There are system calls to get sizes of individual files (Raku IO objects
provide the same function via the `.s()` method), but even in C language, you
have to walk the directory tree and ask for the sizes of each file, then sum
them yourself.
The File::Find module can handle the walking for you, allowing for this tight
solution:
raku -e "use File::Find; say find(dir => <.>)ยป.s.sum;"
