What are you including in these figures? About a month ago, I
calculated:
Table 16-1. Approximate source tree sizes
+-------------------------+-----------+
|Component | Size (MB) |
+-------------------------+-----------+
|Repository src/sys | 53 |
|Repository src | 330 |
|Repository ports | 36 |
|Source tree /usr/src/sys | 65 |
|Source tree /usr/src | 372 |
|Source tree /usr/ports | 160 |
|Object tree src | 160 |
+-------------------------+-----------+
I've just checked /usr/src again:
# du -s /usr/src/
383294 /usr/src/
Am I missing something?
