Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: nautilus
When I tried to find out how big my home dir was, I right clicked, and
it reported 127 GB with 22k files. That's not right so I tried again and
it reported 45 GB and some other number of files. Each time I try, it
usually reports a different size.
If I open the directory and select all of the files, including hidden,
nautilus reports 167 or so GB and a few more files. While typing this I
left the proprieties window open and a few minutes after I opened the
properties dialogue, it updated to 320K files 223GB.
My home dir is mounted on a separate partition and df reports that I
have used 318GB of it.
I imagine that it might still be calculating in the background but stopped
updating the size counter. I thought It was done and had not indication that it
was not. There is no noticeable HDD activity.
