Elephant creates some btrees as part of repository initialization.

What you're seeing is probably a combination of BDB log files (try to
invoke db_archive with the -d switch[1]) and preallocated disk space
(to avoid excessive fragmentation when the tree is filled).

That's an educated guess, I haven't looked at it.
