The latter, I think.  Tahoe doesn't currently track usage -- though there's
very active work being done on this.  I think the graph shows Dmitry using
a lot of his available data because "disk space" just shows the amount of
total space on the partition on which the Tahoe storage resides, while the
"available" graph shows how much of it is unused.

In my case, the partition being used by Tahoe has nothing else, so my parts
of the graph accurately reflect how much of the space I'm providing is
consumed (about 380GB of 1.5 TB).  Dmitry must have his Tahoe storage on a
partition with a lot of other data.
