This is in a 32-bit chroot for a slower machine on the local net:
(webs-chroot) peak / # alias emerj
alias emerj='emerge --jobs=24 --load-average=60 --keep-going --nospinner'
(webs-chroot) peak / # emerj -eB world
--->8
(webs-chroot) peak / # find /usr/portage/packages -type f | wc
647 647 29800
(webs-chroot) peak / # eclean-pkg -d
[snipped hundreds of lines]
[ 774.8 M ] Total space from 646 files were freed in the packages
directory
(webs-chroot) peak / # find /usr/portage/packages -type f | wc
1 1 31
[Copy backup back in.]

started happening several weeks ago.
