Re: "svn blame" is the cause - Re: svnserve.exe (Win32) using 2GB of memory and then crashing?

More on the "svn blame -g" issue...

I just tried "svn blame" (no -g) on the same file and it ran quickly,
with no major up-tick in memory usage.

I tried it again with -g and it blew up to 2GB.

Next, I tried another file with more revisions. "svn blame" spins
memory usage to 45MB and then eventually comes back with output.

"svn blame -g" on this same file, causes svnserve to quickly (in about
45 seconds) climb to 2GB of memory usage and doesn't come back (at least
after 5 minutes). At that point, I just killed svnserve.exe on the server.
