linux - ecryptfs size different from home directory size -
i'm puzzled. harddisk total , of space used .eryptfs/$myusername (810.4 gb). strangly, home directory /home/myusername (22.2gb) consumes less diskspace. thought wrong or "missing" free space?
ecryptfs slightly pads files, , overhead of encryption increment on disk usage, certainly not grade describe, 37x!
the disk usage matters of /home/.ecryptfs/$user
directory, encrypted files stored on disk. you're seeing in terms of usage of $home phantom -- cleartext decryption of files appears in memory, , not on disk.
to see true usage, use:
df -h /home du -sh /home
linux ubuntu-11.04 diskspace ecryptfs
