Hi, I'm writing a general purpose filesystem browser which uses tracker and could need some fast way of getting the size of a directory. Ideally as fast as getting the size of a file.
Wouldn't it be possible to add this to tracker. Tracker allways knows when a file size changes, so why not adding the size difference to all directories up the hierarchy, when this happens. This would make tracker ideal for filesystem housekeeping tools. These could instantly show the 20 biggest files and directories or could generate views like SequoiaView. And this without statting the whole sub-tree.
