svn to git, N-squared?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have Mozilla CVS in a SVN repository. I've been using git-svnimport
to import it. This time I am letting it run to completion; but the
import has been running for four days now and it is only up to 2004.
The import task is stable at 570MB and it is using about 50% of my
CPU. It is constantly spawning off git write-tree, read-tree,
hash-object, update-index. It is not doing excessive disk activity.

The import seems to be getting n-squared slower. It is still making
forward progress but the progress seems to be getting slower and
slower.

It looks like it is doing write-tree, read-tree, hash-object,
update-index once or more per change set. If these commands are
n-proportional and they are getting run n times, then this is a
n-squared process. Projecting this out, the import may take 10 days or
more to completely finish.
