Hi Stefan,

Bingo! Not full success, but much improvement. Entering single rev range
that embeds all the gaps has dramatic effect on the merge speed and
correctness:
Approach 1: TSVN 1.5-RC3 (32-bit)
- run merge wizard, first merge style option
- enter revision range manually with gaps, e.g. "10142-10451"
- otherwise accept defaults (click "non-interactive" immediately when the
merge starts)
Result 1:
- merge window reports single range for the merge
- individual merges much faster than before
- merge runs successfully to the end
- total time reported by TSVN: 9 min 15 sec
Approach 2: SVN rc9 command-line client (32-bit)
- "svn merge -r10142:10451 --accept postpone URL"
Result 2:
- merge runs successfully to the end
- total time 40 seconds
Approach 3: TSVN 1.5-RC3 (32-bit)
- run merge wizard, first merge style option
- enter revision range with "Show Log" button, paint range "10142-10451"
- otherwise accept defaults (click "non-interactive" immediately when the
merge starts)
Result 3:
- merge window reports every merge subrange (there are about 60 subranges)
- individual merges very slow
- after 27 submerges, the merge got confused: it *restarted* with the second
subrange (r10145-10146; the first subrange is 10141-10142). This of course
resulted in conflicts for every repeated submerge.
- finally, after 14 re-applied submerges the merge failed with error
Error: In directory 'd:\va88\uit\libs'
Error: Error processing command 'append' in 'd:\va88\uit\libs'
Error: Missing 'dest' attribute in 'd:\va88\uit\libs'
Error: Error reading spooled REPORT request response
So I think there are two issues: a) general slowness problem when compared
with the CL client b) correctness problem when there are many subranges
within the merge.
I will later try the multiple-subrange merge with the CL client, if
possible.
HTH,
Kari
