Hello,

I would love to use darcs to mirror some large CVS repositories (e.g.,
FreeBSD-src, FreeBSD-ports, etc). However so far I have either not
been able to because of scalability issues with darcs itself (i.e.,
huge one-time commit doesnt work too well) or with the conversion tool
(e.g. tailor barfs with a "MemoryError" when inspecting the
history[1]).

Has anyone been able to do this reliably, and if so, how? I'm not too
worried about two-way synching atm, since this would be mostly to
maintain local changes while keeping the master repos up-to-date
through CVS.

[1] I suppose it might be a python vm issue, because this seems to
happen even if memory is not actually exhausted (no or very large
resource limits, and not actually running out of virtual memory).
