I made an instance following the tutorial for docker. Now i really want to track the storage space my instance is using (mostly out of curiosity), but i can't find any way to (quickly) check the storage used by pictrs. Checking the directory size takes way too long.

Maybe it's obvious and I just missed it but idk.

It depends on how your mounts are setup, but df might get you closer to what you need.

edit: This command shows the usage of mounted partitions. If your setup is on its own mount, that will probably get you the you need. If not, you might need to do some deductive work.
