bzr needs to scale up very well: projects with tens of thousands of

 

6

commits, tens of thousands of files, and tens of thousands of

 

7

branches.

We are concerned with both the big-O performance of the design, and

 

10

the multiplicative factors of the implementation.  Both is important.

12

For example, darcs, svn and arch use more than one inode per working

 

13

file (pristine, id file, etc).  This is only a constant factor, but

 

14

enough to more than double the space used by a typical tree.  We would

 

15

like to avoid it if we can.

 

16

 

 

17

From a early stage in development the features which do work should be

 

18

tested on large trees.
