If you have done a buildworld in the past you can delete everything in 
/usr/obj/, rm -r /usr/obj/*
if you have lots of installed ports/upgraded ports run "portclean -CDD" 
(portclean is part of the portupdate suite of tools)
if you still need more space delete everything in /usr/ports/distfiles/  
(unless your on a dial-up modem, it would take forever to redownload 
everything.)

As far as having enough space to buildword, 2.3GB sounds like enough but 
don't quote me on that.
