Thank you _very_ much, the performance increase is tremendous: from,
ATM, 15 minutes per commit (with large merge-infos) down to 15 seconds
each. This means that instead of taking weeks, the migration will now
complete in hours! Memory consumption might be a bit higher, but not a
problem for me at all.
(I didn't apply the two additional patches you supplied, only the two
ones linked above.)
Thanks again, you saved my deadline :)
Fabian
