i've been pruning my "downloads" disk,
rather drastically, and not making a dent.

today some more, less drastic but still
hefty, same result.

revisited du- checked it twice - three
times- yup, it reports one directory at
800+ gb- on a 400gb disk!

thanks to those who pointed out some details on du...
i tried du -s & got consistent results as with df.
apparently i was not pruning as much as i thought,
due to the way azureus handles sparse files, as
some kindly pointed out.

time to whip ou8t the pruing shears!

thanks all, for your help.
