It is set up to do a full buildworld/buildkernel every night. That way, when its time to upgrade for, say, security reasons, there is no build delay (which takes nearly 5 hours on this virtual machine). -- The problem is that the machine has really limited disk space for day-to-day use. So here's the question: does installworld/kernel need what is in /usr/obj, or can that be deleted once the build is complete? This would free up considerable space on that machine.
