Need more disk space?

When I last partitioned my hard disk, I allocated 2 gig for caching
Debian files with apt-proxy. I thought this would be heaps to meet my
requirements.

It currently has approx 350 Meg free, and no doubt if I kept my
testing systems up to date with testing, this would vanish in several
days time.
