I don't understand what the patch does, but I do know that it changes the performance on some darcs operations from "it took GiB of RAM and max CPU and uncounted hours before I gave up and killed it" to "it took a while but it worked". Yesterday someone that I chatted with on IRC encountered that case -- trying to darcs add a large collection of files, letting it hammer their machine for several hours (possibly overnight), and then giving up. Not to put too fine a point on it, but I'm surprised this patch wasn't included in darcs 1.0.6. See also: http://bugs.darcs.net/issue49 Where I encourage people who have this problem to use try the patch.
