On Subversion's own repository, this command essentially never ends:

svn log -g -rHEAD:0

Until the API gives us more control, I wonder if we could do things
differently to get a performance compromise? For example, maybe we
could just build the cache we do now, and provide a context option on
a revision node to get the mergeinfo "on demand" for just that
revision? This could update the cache for next time.

We could also maybe do it on demand as the graph is built, but that
would make performance really inconsistent.

I think we need to figure out some kind of way to defer getting the
information. Ideally the cache can still be updated when we do get it
though.
