Chris,

Currenty, the default configuration is to compile with debug information.
This requires a considerable amount of disk space.

To change this, look at the CXX (g++) flags reported by "configure",
(there's a line written that details how g++ is run; if you don't have it
just rerun configure). Then, set the environment variable CXXFLAGS to the
list of flags _except_ "-g" (that's the flag for debug info). In t/csh you
do something like:

setenv CXXFLAGS "-O <whatever other options there are>"

Then run configure again and recompile.

Good luck,
Lior
