You are correct. It can also return usage for a particular domain. Instead of
querying with 'u...@domain', query with '@domain'.

Basically, it's adding up the contents of a user's Maildir and caching this
information. It then updates this cache with changes it sees. It's a bit
more complicated than that, but that's essentially what it's doing.
As far as how it calculates Maildirs, it will use the Maildir++ formatted
filenames to cut down on stat() calls. You can enable and disable this in
vusaged.conf, but it's on by default. It also optionally evaluates the
size of directory entries -- again, on by default. So, if a user has
100k files in a single Maildir directory, the 'new' or 'cur' directory
entry will be quite large; it will factor this in.
Is that what you were looking for, or were you looking for something more
specific?
