I just did a fresh install of FreeBSD-8.0/amd64. Previously, I had
FreeBSD-7.3/i386  installed. It appears the the size of "/" has
increased dramatically.

$ df -H
Filesystem     Size    Used   Avail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/ad0s1a    1.0G    527M    428M    55%    /
devfs          1.0k    1.0k      0B   100%    /dev
/dev/ad0s1d    520M     18k    478M     0%    /tmp
/dev/ad0s1e    236G    6.0G    212G     3%    /usr
/dev/ad1s1d    238G    720M    218G     0%    /var

When I attempted to build World and a new kernel after first installing
8.0, I received an error that "/" was at 106% and the process stopped. I
reinstalled 8.0 and increased the size to 1.0G and now everything
appears to be working correctly.

In my old installation, the root directory only used a minuscule amount
of space. Why has it increased so dramatically in 8.0/amd64?
