Hej Robin,

> How much space does all the distfiles to FreeBSD takes?

I assume you're talking about the ports distfiles, and not the ports 
collection itself. All distfiles occupy _lots_ of space. I can't 
give you an exact answer, but here are some figures from my system:

The /usr/ports tree, (not counting distfiles or prebuilt packages) 
occupies roughly 1G.

The 274 distfiles I keep around at the moment add up to something 
like 500M. (Mind you, there are more than 8000 ports, many of which 
pull in more than one distfile.)

MvH,
