Here is the link for Storage Usage (the actually Extras version):
http://maemo.org/downloads/product/Maemo5/storageusage/

As you can see in the screenshot, non optified packages and files are red coloured, while optified are green. Remember that you don't have to worry for red files (they do not need to be optified, unless you have personally put it in rootfs, then you should remove them from there and put them in MyDocs), but only for red packages.

That aside, it's really useful.
Maybe it's useles to determine the rootfs free space, but it's very helpful for finding what it's filling it up.
