There are plugins intended to keep the number of backup copies down. My personal favorite is AlternateBackupPlugin. I keep an online copy of it at http://no-sin.com/wiki/WorkTracker.html Basically it lets you tell it how many backup copies to keep, and then when it hits the top number it starts copying over the earlier copies (1 through 10, and then starts over at 1 again).
Also Simon has a plugin over at http://mptw.tiddlyspot.com that is more time based.
