Enable Finder "Calculate all sizes" checkbox by default Finder &gt; Show View Options &gt; Calculate all sizes

This option causes Finder to calculate the sizes of all files and folders and display their sizes in the Finder list view columns, rather than a useless --.
 
&quot;Calculate all sizes&quot; is OFF by default. I seem to need to enable it on a per-folder basis for every directory in Finder.
How can I enable &quot;Calculate all sizes&quot; as ON by default for all Finder folders?
Are there any performance considerations for this option on a modern Mac and APFS file system? Sizes are listed instantaneously and I have noticed no downside to enabling the option.
On macOS Big Sur, in Finder, when you 'Show View Options' you get the following window where you can see there is a button at the bottom to use the settings as default. After adjusting the settings, press that button and see if it solves your problem.
