Though one could split the difference and say they have the ability to consciously forget. Thus they would save space/points not just in a computer/metagaming sense but in an emotional sense in order to adapt.
I have no idea how one would write that up in Gurps though.
Not really, that just matters for how much time is needed. As long as they behave in a roughly human maner they would accumulate new experieces, at least at some rate.

Maybe Photographic Memory(only for a set of x character points choosen by the character; only for y years of memories choosen by the character)?
