We basically do the same: Use OBS for continuous integration tests and thus build
a huge set of package multiple times every say (based on git commits).

We had 1.5TB of pure source history in just 2 month and we did not want to
by new storage every year ;).

So we sponsored the development of a cleanup task in obs_admin (see Adrians last
post). It has been developed by B1-Systems.

We run this task as a cronjob once a day (in the night) and it does its job.
