RAW to DNG question

[ElsieHull]

I converted a large folder with several subset folders  from Raw to DNG, sending them to an external drive.   It worked OK  all the subset folders are there.  However,  the folders themselves show a size of zero.  you have to open them to see the size of the individual files.  In other words, it does not give me the total  size of the folder itself.  It must see the folder as a single item.  Is there a way around this?

I think this is a Mac system problem.  I don't know why this happens, but I see it a lot. 
It seems like this would have been fixed long ago, yet I still see it.

Is this not fixed by accessing View > Show View Options (command-j), and with "All Windows" selected clicking "Calculate All Sizes"?  This seems to solve it for me for basic browsing but I have not yet tried the batch DAM conversion.  And Peter's seems to use that setting already for his bucket system, but it may be worth double-checking.  Perhaps the new folders revert to some kind of default that does not calculate the sizes.  Just throwing it out there.
