Ok, this is probably a question for a "general" list, but here goes....

The machine I've been installing Gentoo on is rather limited in disk
space. I've noticed that as I start installing things, the Portage
directory is growing rather quickly, thus filling up my / partition.
What's the best way from keeping the Portage tree from growing? Can you
limit the size of the "distfiles" directory somehow? That seems to be
the biggest.
