Sorry, I may have misspoke...
In hunting down an oversized file, I usually use "du -h -s *", which summarizes the size of all files/subdirectories. It does not show hidden directories. This tripped me up for a little while, since the file in question was in a hidden directory.
Hope this helps.

Check for hidden files or directories (ls -la). I believe that DF will

Can't confirm that, and it's not documented anywhere. Can you really reproduce that with a test-case?
