This was done on a new 2.8GHz Dell OptiPlex GX280 w/ 1GB RAM and a 40GB
hard drive. I didn't pay attention to how much disk space was required...
this was a test system I just whipped up for play (to see how well FreeBSD
installed and ran on new hardware... we got like 50 of them in and I had
some time before I needed to deploy them). The space allocated to /usr
would've been whatever (a)uto set up for a 40GB drive. I also didn't time
it, but it took less than a workday (8h) and it was running in a terminal
window with X/Gnome running too so it didn't get 100% CPU (but close).
