thanks gregwm,
my aim is to understand client utilisation per client after compression but
not worrying about shared hardlinks, so i can report back to each user their
approx usage - server pool utilisation is not a worry for this.
To get that information just want to be sure that my "du -hs" is giving me
that info and im not miss reading.
if someone with the required knowledge could confirm im correct would be
fantastic.
thanks all
