Take a look at how much memory it's using - I've been running into a
problem with 1.5.x (.4 and .5 definitely) where a not-very-large (but
flat and heavily merged) directory causes the client to use between 1G
and 3G of RAM - so on a machine with 1G, it starts swapping and takes
20m+ to cherry pick a 10-line change - the same change on a machine
with 4G finishes in under a minute. (We had one instance that failed
entirely, because you can only get 3G per process on a 32-bit
linux...) Unfortunately I haven't reproduced it from scratch.
