Where are my bytes?

When I look at " /Library/Dictionaries/Apple Dictionary.dictionary/Contents/Info.plist" in Finder, it shows a preview and says 5 kB. Ok.

But: Finder → FIle → Get Info says:
4,893 bytes (Zero bytes on disk)

And lstat shows:
st_size	= 4893	(file size, in bytes)
st_blocks	= 0		(blocks allocated for file)
st_flags	= 0x20 	(user defined flags for file)

/usr/include/sys/stat.h has:
#define UF_COMPRESSED	0x00000020	/* file is hfs-compressed */

So: where are these bytes (if not on disk)?
And if they are really compressed: how much space they take in some unknown compressed location?

I am trying to find who or what is taking space on my disk. So given some directory, I want to add the disk space of all its files (+ subdirectories).

OS X 10.10.2

Gerriet.
