That's enough for the download -- the binary tree is only 94MB.  You
could fit the entire debian-0.93/ in there, source and all, it only
comes to 224MB.  Here's how the binaries break down:

        2902    binary/math
        606     binary/admin
        5748    binary/base
        1811    binary/comm
        23822   binary/devel
        1470    binary/doc
        8670    binary/editors
        346     binary/electronics
        2793    binary/games
        1159    binary/graphics
        166     binary/hamradio
        2968    binary/mail
        1992    binary/misc
        6143    binary/net
        697     binary/news
        426     binary/shells
        514     binary/sound
        7652    binary/tex
        5723    binary/text
        18699   binary/x11
        1       binary/binary
        94499   binary

And as for /usr, I think 500MB is plenty.  I only need 360MB with
practically everything installed, including 60MB of local, non-Debian
software.

        795     /usr/X11R5
        53204   /usr/X11R6
        522     /usr/X386
        0       /usr/adm
        40172   /usr/bin
        404     /usr/dict
        25152   /usr/doc
        23      /usr/etc
        1907    /usr/games
        0       /usr/gnu
        1       /usr/hosts
        4675    /usr/i486-linuxaout
        3988    /usr/include
        6583    /usr/info
        133288  /usr/lib
        58325   /usr/local
        12      /usr/lost+found
        14196   /usr/man
        12515   /usr/private
        3900    /usr/sbin
        0       /usr/spool
        856     /usr/src
        0       /usr/tmp
        360516  /usr

I wish I knew an easy way.  I only know these figures because I mirror
the distribution, so I can do a du on my local drive.  Another way
might be to do a "ls -lR" and calculate the total by hand.

The total size, just a few days out-of-date, is 779,845 MB.  I wonder
how that would fit on a cdrom.  :-)
