We got Alec Warner access to another power5 and he's been finishing out his testing on his own. I know one of the tools 'tailor' he was testing with was looking like it was going to take the better part of ~30 days to complete.

I don't know how cvs2git works, but maybe you should try tailor (http://packages.gentoo.org/packages/?category=dev-util;name=tailor). I think it works in an incremental way, reproducing one patchset at a time (which should be runnable on "normal" machines), allowing for bidirectional sync between repositories. It has a lot of backends, so you can try other VCS instead of git, to see how much space does the same tree take up in each VCS.

Good luck!

the need for 64bit counters for the memory stats is a good problem to have!!

:D

Those icons are hot!
