Naturally, I found the answer to my own question shortly after posting the
question below.  DSPLNK does a lot of what I want to do except for neatly
summarizing the file size at the directory level.  The big files _are_ in
the system ASP.

Subject: Do stream files live in an ASP?


We're currently getting close to overflow in the system ASP.  We haven't
been able to find the culprit.  One thing that occurred to me is the IFS,
where we've just recently started storing some large files.

Would this show up as used disk space in the system ASP?  If it does, I know
where the monster files are.  

I've looked through the list archives and noticed that there don't seem to
be many options for the kind of disk usage analysis you can do in the
qsys.lib file system for stream files in the other file systems.  I see
there are some third party utilities available to report on IFS disk usage
etc., but it seems to me that this ought to be part of the operating system.
CHKDSK and DIR did it in a primitive way for primitive versions of DOS.
