I know that a hard linked file will show the same disk usage, so if for example: $ du a 12345 a $ ln a b $ du a b 12345 a 12345 b $ But in this case it's not the entire file being hardlinked, rather just some parts of the file being deduplicated so it's not exactly the same. Or is it? This is why I asked on the mailing list. :-)
