Package: mercurial
Version: 1.0-4
Severity: normal
In a moderate size repository, hg grep consumes too much memory to be
really usable. The repository I use has 884 revisions and hg grep for
anything makes Mercurial consume 70% of my memory before I get bored
and kill it.
A simple shell script grepping each changeset is more efficient...
Beside this observation, I can provide more informations on demand,
but I can't upload my repositories.
