I have this suspicion that it is spending most of its time in
insert-by-date. Luckily, merge_bases_many() is totally outside of
the usual revision traversal and its use of the commit list is
pretty well isolated.
Peff, can I interest you into resurrecting your $gmane/174007 and
$gmane/174008 (we do not need pop_commit_from_queue() in the latter;
everything can stay as static to commit.c for now) to see how well
priority queue based approach would perform?
