I know that it easy to use the 'du -a' and pipe the output to a
check if it is a directory. But if you have a lot of files, it
really matters if you touch a files twice.

And this solution does not count the size of directories.

find / -xdev -printf "%k\t%p%y\n" |
sed 's/d$/\//;t; s/.$//;' |
LC_ALL=C sort -rn -k1,1


I agree that a single letter option is maybe not needed, but a
--dir-with-slash would be good.
