If it is old format repos, then 2.1.0b3 won't address that. #2) In my testing, 2a format repos don't benefit from partial fetching nearly as much as older formats. Mostly because we can pack a significant amount of history into a single groupcompress block. If you request only some of the texts from it, the server will break it apart for you. But if you are running over a dumb transport, you just get to download the whole thing, and break it apart yourself. I tried doing this to get emacs when my connection was flakey. Downloading half the repo downloaded pretty much all of it. > >> This would make the memory leaks less of >> a problem, and it should make the scheduling of code imports a bit >> fairer, since large branches would not keep the system busy for a long >> time. > > It would also need some work so that we don't publish an import until > the import actually finishes, I think that would be quite confusing. > >> The overhead of resuming an existing import should be relatively small. > > Yeah.
