[p4] Getting the size of a branch

[Jamison, Shawn]

The suggestions so far have worked out very well for what I needed.  I
have 10 Million files and 160 Gb of files and metadata so that is why I
was trying to avoid a sync...

Thanks everyone for your help!!

That depends. On one of my servers there are close to five million files
and I needed to find the size of the whole lot. That would have taken
days over that particular connection.

It was a lot faster to just make sure the size information was up to
date on the server. (Not really worried about the end of line difference
out of 90+ GB of files - most are Unix format anyway.)

Hi 

After reading all the responses to this question, I think your original
way of syncing and calculation seems the easiest and least prone to
error or timewasting!!!!
