Ah, oops, I was tricked by the fact that the size of the volumes was
about the same as the space used on disk.  I overlooked the fact that
the RPMs are compressed and we don't install all of them.  It looks
like we should be fine with our 2 rep sites and might even prefer to
release irix on the linux night.  Sorry for the confusion.
