If we are trying to resolve deltas for a long delta chain composed of multi-megabyte objects we can easily run into requiring 500M+ of memory to hold each object in the chain on the call stack while we recurse into the dependent objects and resolve them. We now use a simple delta cache that discards objects near the bottom of the call stack first, as they are the most least recently used objects in this current delta chain. If we recurse out of a chain we may find the base object is no longer available, as it was free'd to keep memory under the deltaBaseCacheLimit. In such cases we must unpack the base object again, which will require recursing back to the root of the top of the delta chain as we released that root first. Signed-off-by: Shawn O.
