User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:11.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/11.0 Build Identifier: when triing to calculate root directory size, it shows 128 TiB.... actually i have only 500 Gb .. i understand that some files and subdirectories are not accesible by the user,,, but nevertheless 128 TiB result is laughly ;-) http://dl.dropbox.com/u/53352759/snapshot5.png OS: kubuntu 11.10 64 bit edition,(P.S. im not adwansed user, im just mouse user ;-) ) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. open dolphin in root / directory 2. right click on a background free space click properties 3. wait while kde calculates used space Actual Results: it shows that you have 128 TiB used Expected Results: actual size
I can confirm the 128 TiB in KDE 4.8.2. Most likely due to "files" in /proc being included, see also http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=223&t=101330

Adding two devs to cc, I guess with the knowledge available a path to a solution can be found rather easy?

This seems to have cropped up again, at least in Plasma 5.26 (KDE Neon) as well as Plasma 5.25 (in Kubuntu 22.10).
We have the same issue in year 2023. I would suggest that Dolphin should ignore or not calculate any size of the RAM directories (/sys, /proc, /tmp and /run), these RAM-directories run on the different RAM-filesystems (e.g: tmpfs, sysfs, ramfs and proc) and are stored in RAM, not hard disk.

I also encounter the issue in kde 6.1.5 (Fedora).
