Importing from special remotes necessarily needs to hold the list of files
|
||
|
|
in memory, or at least it seems like it would be hard to get it to stream
|
||
|
|
over them. So there may be some way to decrease the memory use per file
|
||
|
|
(currently 4.2 kb per file according to your numbers), possibly by around
|
||
|
|
50%, but it would still scale with the number of files. The whole import
|
||
|
|
interface would need to change to use trees to avoid that.
|
||
|
|
It would be ok to file a bug report about this.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The legacy directory import interface avoids such problems.
