Error Command to display the space usage (memory usage) of a specific directory.

Hi all,
Can you please tell me the command, with which one can know the amount of space a specific directory has used.

df -k . ---> Displays, the amount of space allocated, and used for a directory.
du -k <dir name> - gives me the memory used of all the files inside <dir>

But i want the to know, how much memory has one directory used on the whole. Not the memory used by the files & folders inside that directory.

Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Abhishek.

NAME
cgclear - unload the cgroup filesystem SYNOPSIS
cgclear [-e] [-l <filename>] [-L <directory>] [...] DESCRIPTION
Without parameters, this command moves all the tasks inside the various cgroups to the root cgroup, deletes all the cgroups and finally unmounts the cgroup filesystem from the system. If one or more config files are specified, only groups defined in the config files are removed. The files are processed in reverse order, i.e. the last file on command line is processed first, so cgclear can have the same command line arguments as appropriate cgconfigparser. -l, --load=<filename> specifies the config file to read. This option can be used multiple times and can be mixed with -L option. -L, --load-directory=<directory> specifies the directory, which is searched for configuration files. All files in this directory will be processed in alphabetical order as they were specified by -l option. This option can be used multiple times and can be mixed with -l option. -e specifies that only empty groups should be removed. If a group defined in a config file has tasks inside or has a subgroup, it won't be removed. This option works only with -l or -L options. SEE ALSO
