According to this, /Users is taking up a ton of space. I wonder if that
number has improved (become more accurate) after the Disk Utility and
fsck stuff? Disk Utility corrected a "volume header" problem. I didn't
run du again after fixing that, I just ran OmniDiskSweeper, verified
that nothing changed there, and assumed the problem was still there. My
bad.
FWIW, OmniDiskSweeper reports /Users/anthem to be ~850MB when du says
it's really ~23GB. Other user folders have similar discrepancies
(though not as large). The problem is not caused by lots of files; the
space in question is occupied by music, mostly, that was dropped in the
~/Public/Drop Box folder.
Thanks to everyone who chimed in to help.
Best, Eric
