Ok.  What am I missing?

 /usr/ports/misc  du -sh
 10M    .

(and that's after the repocopies)

Each one is quite tiny, and most of it is packing list:
 /usr/ports/misc/kde3-i18n-sv  du -sh
 72K    .

42 x 72K =3D 3ish megs total new stuff.

Are you mirroring the entire cvs repository, instead of cvsupping? on a 28.=
8=20
kb line? *why*?

=2D-=20
