Good news and bad news.
I have been converting the debhelper CVS archive posted a day or so
ago. It's a 3.5M CVS archive and using the Subversion HEAD it
converts to a 20M Subversion repository with 1087 revisions, of which
485 are tags. Using the patch above the Subversion repository size is
reduced to 13M. If I 'svnadmin dump' bits of the two repositories
they appear to be the same.
That's the good news, the bad news is that it is extremely slow. If I
attempt a full dump of the repository, it runs a bit slowly for the
first 22 revisions, but with the machine using 100% CPU. Around about
revison 23 the CPU usage drops to near zero and the dump crawls along
so slowly I have never bothered to let it finish. Dumping the
revision range 20:40 takes less than 10 seconds without the patch and
over 4 minutes with the patch. The revision range 520:540 takes 10
seconds without the patch and over a minute with the patch.
