My application is calculating total Files within my domain of SharePoint online. Traversing through each and every list then count attachment and files (in the case of the doc library) is really time-consuming.
Is there anything we can do it fast like any CSOM API to get files from the website or site collection itself?

    You could try to use search to get the count of the files and attachments in the site collection.
    Using the SharePoint search Query APIs
