If it hasnt been fixed in cvs I know of one instance that used to cause
enormous memory usage. Try doing a cvs history on a server with a HUGE
history file. If I remember correctly, cvs mallocs the size of the file,
slurps it into memory, then processes the file line by line, then frees
the memory. Butt ugly...
