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,
