After reading the whole thread on this, I've using a git checkout of git, cvsps-2.1 and cvs-1.11.12, running overnight in verbose mode with screen. Hopefully will have a repo in the morning ;)
Good stuff. I am rerunning it to prove (and bench) a complete an uninterrupted import. So far it's done 4hs 30m, footprint grown to 207MB, 49750 commits. So I think it will be done in approx 30hs on this single-cpu opteron. Most commits are small, but there is a handful that are downright massive -- and we hold all the file list in memory, which I think explains (most of) the memory growth. I've looked into avoiding holding the whole filelist in memory, but it involves rewriting the cvsps output parsing loop, which is better left for a rainy day, with a test case that doesn't take 30hs to resolve. cheers, martin - : send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
