twb suggested on IRC that I mention my experience with converting to darcs 2.
The repository is not public, unfortunately, but I'll try to make a useful report. I'm running darcs 2.1.0 on ubuntu 8.10, 32-bit, Athlon 3200+, firefox eating about 30% of the cpu :) The v1 repo: 1800 patches du -h _darcs/patches = 29M du -h = 71M find -type f | grep -v _darcs = 1228 files (currently) darcs show tags = 37 tags, most of them recent darcs convert: 43.79s user 7.01s system 48% cpu 1:45.32 total grep lossy conv.log = 58 lines of "lossy conversion of complicated conflict"! grep merger conv.log = 87 lines wc -l conv.log = 1783 lines I don't know what's being lost, but it seems like it happened a lot. And, the v2 repo doesn't seem faster for the simple operations I've tried so far. There are no diffs in either repo; everything is local disk; times are best-of-3: darcs wh v1 3.1sec v2 4.0sec darcs wh -sl v1 6.1sec v2 9.3sec (why 2x as long?) darcs mv foo bar v1 3.8sec v2 6.0sec I'll probably leave this project on v1 :) cheers, drew _______________________________________________ darcs-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osuosl.org/mailman/listinfo/darcs-users
