Starting from scratch would definitely be an alternative option (WRT to
storage consumption), even more radical though.  Some of the projects in
Copr require non-trivial bootstrapping procedures (not as complicated as
Fedora itself, but still).

What if you copied the latest build for each package to the "new"
rawhide chroot? That way all the builds should be able to continue
without bootstrapping as they do now, without having to store the
entire build history.
 

Automatic rebuilds - yes - sounds like a good RFE - but it wouldn't
solve the storage consumption problem (eventually, without the
ability to hardlink across chroots, the feature would consume even
more storage).  I thought we already have a ticket/RFE one for this, but
I can't find it...  But note, because of the bootstrapping issues above
- it would anyway be easier to start with "Fedora N-1" packages and
re-build everything against them, rather than start from scratch (or at
least have yet another option so user can choose the preferred rebuild
mode).
