du -s -m -A /ifs/abc --> data (in MB)
du -s -m /ifs/abc --> space (with protection overhead, but not snapshots)
find /ifs/abc -type f | wc -l --> files
These commands take their time... why not a single command can return
all figures in one run, that remains a mystery of the UNIX shell tools....
Isilon SmartQuotas return all values in a fraction of a second,
but require a $eparate licen$e (which we always found to be worth the money!)

All of these tools a great, but you're right in them taking some time to run... sometimes a lot of time... That's one of the reasons I like InsightIQ... I've been working on a blog post to quest the InsightIQ data collected directly, rather than from the GUI... but i've been to busy to complete it..
