I think so, yes. The extra space is taken up by indexing.

Well, it's sort of normal, but it's not good. For some reason,
importing logfiles is something ndoutils does extremely slowly.
I haven't looked at the code, but it should be possible to speed
it up considerably. The import program from the reports-module
project happily imports 2-3 gigs of data in 15 minutes or so.
