The pack repository format keeps old packs and indices in .bzr/repository/obsolete-packs, this can chew up a lot of space and should be cleaned up periodically.

This ends up causing log10(N) copies. When you get your 10th item, all of the 1s get packed into a pack of size 10. When you hit 100, all of them get put into another pack.
