Package: bzr
Version: 0.8.2-3
Severity: normal

Hello,

I have a bazaar archive with 800+ revisions. I want to convert this to
bzr fromat.

Every command I try to use starts of running fast, then slows to a crawl
us my system gets bogged down in swap requests.

Some details:

First I ran:

bzr baz-import-branch ~/bzr/diary-data [EMAIL 
PROTECTED]/diary-data--private--0.1

It hangs at about 450 revisions (for several hours or more), so I kill
it and restart it. Then it hangs at about 200 more revisions, so I kill
and restart it, and it says it is up to date. Only the "ls -l" says
there are no files, and "bzr diff" indicates everything has been
deleted.

So I tried both creating a branch and using "bzr revert", but both operations
also kill my system in memory swapping operations.

>From memory, the bzr process was taking up the memory.

Without bzr revert:

after running bzr revert for several minutes:

yes, sure, this computer doesn't have much memory, but my gut feeling is that
bzr is consuming way more memory then it needs to, and that there might be a
memory leak here somewhere.

bazaar has no problems with the same archive on the same machine.
