It's often not even the disk block size (frequently 512 or 1024 byte = regardless of the block size), and in any case that rounding does not = add any valuable information. >> but the 'file size' of a subdirectory is practically impossible to = interpret in a useful way. >=20 > We are not talking about file sizes, we are talking about the "total > NNN" part. The 'file size' of all displayed subdirectory entries are included in = that number, which makes it even more difficult to interpret. If the size field of each displayed entry could be accurately located = and parsed, then that could be used to compose a more useful and = defensible 'total' number.

Given the opposition to removing the field, I propose that this bug be = closed with wontfix (again). Let's use our time more productively.
