I made an instance following the tutorial for docker. Now i really want to track the storage space my instance is using (mostly out of curiosity), but i can’t find any way to (quickly) check the storage used by pictrs. Checking the directory size takes way too long.

Maybe it’s obvious and I just missed it but idk.

    last time i tried it took like 20 minutes, when it’s just around 2GiB.

    i thought it might be because the folder is on a hdd, so i tested moving the entire thing to an ssd and lo and behold, du only took 15 seconds there. too bad I don’t have enough disk space on the ssd to keep the folder there, so i guess I’ll just suffer. the files are probably fragmented over the entire drive or something, idk.
