some hg convert feedback

[Sebastien Lucas]

Hi,

I was a fairly convinced yasvn2hg user and to be fair I decided to
give hg convert a try this morning.

So these are some unsorted remarks :

- running hg convert http://myserver/svn/myrepo myrepo give a
segmentation fault (I'm running Debian Etch with official subversion
package and latest hg from http://selenic.com/repo/hg)

- running hg convert file:///var/svn/myrepo myrepo runs fine in the contrary

- I use a small computer to run the conversion with only 256Mo of RAM
and 128Mo of swap. running the conversion of a big project (1500 files
for about 28Mo) with 800 revisions and I was obliged to convert 50
revision each time to avoid using all the RAM and having the process
killed by the kernel. I don't know if the memory usage has been a
preoccupation so far but in my case it was a pain in ....

- I really miss the merge file of yasvn2hg, I think I'll had that to
the convert extension as soon as I get more time.

Anyway it works very well. The main problem is really the memory usage.
