To be honest Linux and GNOME aren't that large. My company uses Perforce and the average depot size is in the 90-100GB range (ie: if you sync, you'll copy over 90GB of data to your local machine, repository size including revisions is well into the terabytes), mostly binary data, and Perforce handles it surprisingly well.
Similar situation - we've got about a 115gb depot on one project, mostly binary, with around 180 users hitting it. There are also 4 build machines constantly running and checking in ~500mb of compiled exe and script every 15 minutes to 2 hours.

We've probably got over a dozen p4 proxies set up to handle the load, and aside from someone's dumbass move of not having enough hd space on all of the proxies, it seems to be handling it. Occasionally a proxy fails without any good explanation, but the worst consequence is that an autobuild fails or you have to flush your dns cache and restart p4win.

What's the point of storing builds in source control versus just using the file system?
There isn't. Some fuckhead in charge wanted it that way, so it's that way.

Anyone messed with Fossil at all? Sounds a bit interesting, especially for smaller/scattered projects.
