Yes. It's spent almost the whole time so far in /aux0/user-store/osm_hillshading, which looks to be millions of tiny files split up over tens of thousands of directories.
Are quotas enabled on the volume? That might give you a quick snapshot of who the biggest user is.
Not as far as I can tell. quota -v on users who have lots of files there doesn't return any results.
You could try running the du in a subdirectory, which might give you some more ideas about big directories. (You can try: du -k | sort -rn).
I could, but it doesn't seem like it would be much faster than just waiting for a du on the whole thing to complete.
