Don't have a lot of experience with EKG, it's just a lot easier to ask for than full ghc profiling data.. + +It's certainly useful information that you are constantly changing the files. + +I have tried to replicate this setup, with a few hundred files, and writing random stuff to them repeatedly. The RSS did not grow at all despite repeatedly changing and committing the files. + +I then tried adding a remote for it to sync with, and see evidence of a small leak there -- around 8 bytes per file transferred. The leak appears to be in the transfer code, not the git sync code; it happens with both git remotes and with directory special remotes. + +"""]]
