I ran df and ll between each individual unmerge. The individual |
| 7 |
kernels take approx 250 megs, freshly emerged. Compiling generates |
| 8 |
another 200 megs worth of object code, etc. Here's partial output of |
| 9 |
"ll" before the cleanup. Note that 2.6.16-r7, 2.6.17-r7, and 2.6.18-r3 |
| 10 |
were compiled, as well as the current 2.6.19-r5. |

I don't mind the 30 or 40 megs for the source tarball+patches in my |
| 26 |
distfiles directory. But the quarter gig for each minor "r" bump, most |
| 27 |
of which I never build, is a bit much. |
