Jakob sent some patches a few months ago which seem to address the
issue.  Unfortunately we forgot about them :x

Hin-Tak: have you tried Jakob's patches?  I've taken another look,
signed-off and pushed to my master.

Can you take a look at the following two "mergeinfo-speedups"
in my repo?  (git://bogomips.org/git-svn)

Jakob Stoklund Olesen (2):
      git-svn: only look at the new parts of svn:mergeinfo
      git-svn: only look at the root path for svn:mergeinfo

Can you please give them a try?

Apologies - I applied them on top of 2.1.0 earlier today, and the svn repo just
hasn't been changed much recently to show any interesting behavior
with 'git svn fetch --all', so I thought about whether I should wait to report. Then
I changed my mind, and decided what the hell, let's clone the whole
thing again :-). So I made a new directory, run 'git init', just copy
.git/config from the old reop and am doing 'git svn fetch --all' in the new empty
directory again.

So far it seems to be good. But I am only at revision 35700-ish at the moment,
and the whole thing is 66700-ish. Oh, I forgot to mention that the strange
pauses seem to be followed by messages like these:

W:svn cherry-pick ignored (/branches/R-2-12-branch:52939,54476,55265) - missing 492 commit(s) (eg 9bf20dca6a8b05dff28e6486b1613f10825972c9)

So presumably I'd only see interesting behavior when there are a number of branches.
It seems the first branches are around revision 48000-ish, so I might have
to wait a bit.

So far, the new clone hasn't created ".git/svn/.caches/" yet; and memory consumption seems
okay also.
