I am wondering if anyone has seen this behavior? I'll do whatever I can
to troubleshoot the problem. I know C but I just don't know where to
look at. Any help would be very much appreciated.

Multiple concurrent full clones push the server into swap. We had 16GiB
of RAM, and this was still occurring.

Glad I am not the only one seeing this :D

Our temporary solution plan is via hooks, if you're asking for a item
before a certain point, throw an error telling you to download a
git-bundle from a given URL instead (as a bonus you can resume that
trivially).

I don't understand the solution... Do you have snippet of the hook?

Take care,
