try something like "du -sk *" inside the directory... an the size limitation can only be done by root (quota) or a user with explicit permissions to do it (by using rbac in solaris for example).

fs_quota
FS_QUOTA(1) AFS Command Reference FS_QUOTA(1)
NAME
fs_quota - Displays the quota used in the volume containing a directory or file
SYNOPSIS
fs quota [-path <dir/file path>+] [-help]
fs q [-p <dir/file path>+] [-h]
DESCRIPTION
The fs quota command displays the percent of quota consumed in the volume that contains each specified directory or file.
To display more detailed information about the volume and the partition it resides on, use the fs examine and fs listquota commands.
To set volume quota, use the fs setquota or fs setvol command.
CAUTIONS
Currently, the maximum size of a volume is 2 terabytes (2^31 bytes).
OPTIONS
-path <dir/file path>
Names each file or directory for which to display the quota consumed in its parent volume. Partial pathnames are interpreted relative
to the current working directory, which is also the default value if this argument is omitted.
-help
Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored.
OUTPUT
The output reports the percent of volume quota used, in the following format:
<percent>% of quota used.
EXAMPLES
The following command lists the percent quota used of the volume housing the current working directory:
% fs quota
17% of quota used.
The following command lists the percent quota used of both the volume housing the current working directory's parent directory and the
volume housing the directory /afs/abc.com/usr/smith:
% fs quota -path .. /afs/abc.com/usr/smith
43% of quota used.
92% of quota used.
PRIVILEGE REQUIRED
The issuer must have the "r" (read) permission on the ACL of the root directory of the volume that houses the file or directory named by
the -path argument, and "l" (list) permission on the ACL of each directory that precedes it in the pathname.
