[TYPO3-english] TYPO3 Disk Usage

[Bernhard Kraft]

Hello !

My 60 GB Laptop SSD drive seemd to be full as I copied over some digital 
photos, which caused my Ubuntu Linux to fire up a tool named "Disk Usage 
Analyzer".

This tool (can be found under Accessories in Ubuntu) allows you to show 
a pie chart or a block diagram of the used diskspace in a very nice way. 
You can also dive into the directory structure, and show a diagram for 
every folder.

I created a screenshot of the output generated for the typo3_src folder 
of an TYPO3 installation, showing how much disk space is used for which 
folders:

(I remember no image-pastebin other that imageshack - probably there are 
also some out there hosted in Europe, but I didn't want to search)


For people having Linux installed, or using it on a daily basis like I 
do for almost 10 years now I would suggestu you just try out this tool. 
For people using other distributions than Ubuntu: The tools is called 
"baobab" and at least contained in Ubuntu/Debians "gnome-tools" package:

root at nitrogen:/home/kraftb# apt-cache search baobab
gnome-utils - GNOME desktop utilities


greets and have a nice Sunday,
Bernhard
