Here is the context:
I am still working on converting my CVS archive to arch with cscvs.
For a reason not germane to the issue, cscvs was interrupted and the
arch project tree left in an unclean state. So I decided to "tla get"
what I already had into a new clean project tree and restart cscvs
from where it got interrupted.
Here is the issue:
The archive now contains 7369 patches and when I try to "tla get" it,
it starts quite fast, but gets slower and slower and consumes a lot of
resources to the point where my machine becomes barely useable. I
interrupted the get process at patch 4732.
I understand that I can cache revisions, but why is it that "tla get"
gets slower and slower and burns resources that way? Maybe the
question is naive: but what's the big deal? It's just applying
patches. right?
Cheers,
