Oooops.
This part wasn't done yet (du(1) still running in the
background) :(
The current sizes are:
$ pwd
/home/ncvs
# du -sk src ports doc www projects
1718098 src
1281062 ports
219034 doc
151592 www
58986 projects
$
You can download the *entire* CVS repository through CVSup:

Each one of the major CVS tree parts listed above presents
its own
special "issues" when converted to another SCM
tool.
The example the ports/ tree is so huge because it contains
many
thousands directories in several levels with even more
thousands small
text files which come and go in a mind-boggingly fast rate.
The src/ tree, on the other hand, is something which has
evolved over
more than 15 years now, with hundreds of vendor imports,
dozens of
branches and it even includes a fair amount of
"active" branches today.
