--- Comment #3 from Alexander Motin <[email protected]> ---
I don't think anything can get out of this bug report.  As was written years
before this is just how ZFS works.  It does not know how much space file us=
es
until transaction group is committed, that might take several seconds.  Peo=
ple
who need the information sooner can use `zpool sync` to trigger and wait for
its completion.  But it can not be done routinely for every `du` call, sinc=
e it
will be too expensive for unprivileged user to do without reason.
