Other Why are FreeBSD binaries smaller than Linux ones?

[Crivens]

Oh, so If I understand correctly? Files on FreeBSD are shown as "full" but they are compressed from ZFS under the hood?

"du" may not give the right data here, but "ls -l" should do it correctly. Same as NTFS, ZFS can compress behind the curtain.

edit: looks like "du" needs the -A flag for this, or it will report "size on disk".

I didn't know all that! Thanks for the knowledge!
