------------------------------------------------------------
I just ran into this issue also with large xml files. It looks like this issue
hasn't been touched in almost 3 years. Changing the target milestone to
1.6-consider in the hopes that this will get looked at again.

> Project: Subversion
> Issue Type: Improvement

> I've got two OpenOffice XML files here, each about 9 megs in size. The
> second file was produced by simply adding a "2" to the beginning of every
> third line (...we used a tiny python script to do the transform.)
> When I compare the two files using GNU diff, it takes 14 seconds.
> When I compare the two files using libsvn_diff, it never finishes... or
> rather, I killed the process after 20 minutes when I noticed the memory
> footprint had grown to 128megs and was still growing. The footprint was only
> ~20 megs for the
> first 10 minutes, which is expected behavior (about 2x the size of the file),
> but I have no idea why the footprint started growing after that.
> I'm using the subversion/tests/libsvn_diff/diff-test binary, by the way.
> I'm attaching the two XML files to this mail for people to reproduce.
> Sander, any idea what's going on? I know that libsvn_diff is sometimes a
> *bit* slower than gdiff, but this scenario seems way out of whack. Cmpilato
> and I discovered this bug when a Collabnet customer attempted to run 'svn
> merge': the
> client started running svn_diff_diff3() on two 8 meg XML files similar to
> this one (with a similar density of changed lines)... and after 20 minutes,
> the server just timed-out and closed the socket... presumably because the
> socket filled up with the REPORT response and the client stopped reading from
> it.
> Anyway, I hope this is a simple bug in libsvn_diff...
