I am having difficulties in migrating my CVS repository to a new server. The new server is running a newer version of cvs (1.11.16) while the old repository machine has 1.11.8.
I have numerous modules defined for the repository in the modules file. These modules encompass in the neighborhood of 2000 separate files. When I go to check out that module, I am getting the following error: cvs [checkout aborted]: out of memory; can not allocate 13139854 bytes This error does not occur when I use version 1.11.8 of cvs, it does with 1.11.16. Furthermore, if my CVSROOT is set to just using a local file system the checkout succeeds, this error is only encountered when I am using Pserver to get to the repository. Finally, the module that I am encountering the error with has 1920 files in it. There is one file that is 32MB in size. If I eliminate that large file, or retag to a smaller version, that is 15MB in size, I do not encounter this error. I can check out the 32MB file by itself, I only have the problem when I check it out as part of the module. I am using IBM hardware with AIX version 5.1. I have already tried increasing the ulimits for the user id that is used to process the cvs requests. I have increased them to unlimited, but still get the error with the same exact number of bytes that you see above. Any help would be appreciated.
