When this free space shrinks more than a configured amount, you get reports showing you what has changed. When I worked there (I wrote much of this utility) there was a speed issue with walking the IFS, but other aspects of the product would give clues to what was happening. Maybe they've fixed the IFS issue by now. Elvis? It tells you long before the system values for disk space are exceeded. It takes almost no CPU even when it wakes up every 15 seconds to check the disk space.
