Hi,
The recipe to get a large memory usage on the svn client:
-- first check out some data for example:
svn co http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk subversion
-- delete all .svn files in this folder
-- create the repository
svnadmin create memoryleak
-- make it general writeable
--start the server
start svnserve -d -r .
-- import the data to folder subversion
svn import subversion svn://<machine>/memoryLeak/subversion/ -m "import"
-- create an empty dir
svn mkdir svn://<machine>/memoryLeak/empty -m "creating empty dir"
-- checkout the empty folder
svn co svn://<machine>/memoryLeak/empty test
-- merge
svn merge svn://<machine>/memoryLeak/empty
svn:// <machine>/memoryLeak/subversion/ test
During the merge the process is increasing to 60MB. It is never decreasing
during merge. The data in the test folder is about 53MB.
Thanks
Klaus

There could be a place where we aren't freeing the memory as early as we
can. I thought several developers chased most of these down... perhaps
we missed on though.
Can you generate a complete reproduction recipe? Starting from creating a
repository, to chewing up lots of memory? It doesn't have to fail, but
as long as we can see the memory grow unbounded, that will be sufficient.
It would greatly help to have such a recipe when chasing down this
problem.
Thanks!
