On creating restorecd kernels, it shows:
% du -sk usr/src
1546456 usr/src
This includes:
- whole usr/src source tree (not only for kernel) (~1.1GB?)
 - usr/src/sys sources (~180MB)
 - usr/src/common sources (~5MB)
 - cobalt GENERIC and INSTALL kernels and objects (~35MB)
- TOOLDIR binaries for i386 (~41MB)
- TOOLDIR binaries for cobalt (~42MB)
