Of course I am! If you take a look into tests/Makefile, you'll see the
default parameters I normally use.

Hi Phil,

the report didn't find anything regarding fsvs, then some things distracted me from looking further into it.

I did however test version 1.1.9 in my virtual machine. A complete revert of / still used too much memory and got killed by the system. Initially the VM had 300 MB, then I increased to 800 MB, but the problem persisted.

Here is what happens in the file system: When the revert starts, it processes some man-pages, then /var/lib, then three linux sources (which take really long), and I think then a quite big file is read from the repository. During this operation the fsvs process gets killed, but when the big file is starting to be processed, fsvs uses already about 80% of system memory. Does this help you?

Best regards,
Simon
