Eli Collins commented on HADOOP-6857:
-------------------------------------

Why do we have separate "dus" and "count" commands?  They seem to duplicate 
each other.  Since the CLI needs to be backwards compatible not suggesting we 
remove one, but perhaps we should update the hdfs_shell docs to make it clear 
that they display the same info if there are not significant differences.

~ $ hadoop fs -dus /user/eli
hdfs://haus01.sf.cloudera.com:10020/user/eli    86183666860

~ $ hadoop fs -count /user/eli

> Currently FsShell report HDFS usage with "hadoop fs -dus <path>" command.  
> Since replication level is per file level, it would be nice to add raw disk 
> usage including the replication factor (maybe "hadoop fs -dus -raw <path>"?). 
>  This will allow to assess resource usage more accurately.  -- Alex K
