Few changes, enormous push?

Hello!

I have a mercurial repository with quite a few files in it.  They vary in
size, but most of them are very small.

Recently, in effort to do a bit of housekeeping, I moved a directory
containing 1000+ small files.  After committing the changes, I tried to
push, which ended up taking a very long time.  (Actually, I still haven't
finished uploading)

Through use of --debug, I was able to determine that the push was uploading
90megs of bundle files.  I'm not exactly sure what bundle files are, but 90
megabytes seems like an excessive amount, especially for just moving around
some files.

Any reason why this is happening?  Any way to reduce this enormous amount of
data?

Best Regards,
Theron Luhn
