Folks: I just made a quick measurement of darcs-2 performance.
Using darcs 1.0.9 I can do "push -a" to another repo which is connected by 802.11g (and which has all the same patches as the source repo) in 3.5 s (all measurements are best of four trials), and can do a "pull -a" in 12.7 s. Using darcs 2 with this repo in hashed format and the remote repo in old format, push takes 0.15 s and pull takes 0.16 s. Using darcs 2 with this repo and the remote repo in darcs-2 format, push takes 10.7 s and pull takes 17.0 s! So as far as pushing and pulling when both repos have the same set of patches, using hashed format is much faster than using darcs-2 format! The repo in question is publically available (and chock full of very cool source code that you are welcome to use): http://allmydata.org/source/tahoe/trunk Regards, Zooko _______________________________________________ darcs-devel mailing list darcs-devel@darcs.net http://lists.osuosl.org/mailman/listinfo/darcs-devel
