To be usable, a speedup of at least factor 10 would be required. Is there any hope for this?
Patch application can be sped up with a planned change of hunk format. If downloading lots of small patch files individually is the problem then darcs could tar them up when checkpointed tags are made.
Will this improve the time for a "./darcs-all pull" for the GHC repository, too? With extra-libraries it takes over 20 minutes for me, even though only 3-4 small patches have actually been pulled and my 2Mbit DSL line sits basically idle during the whole time. This is fairly disappointing... :-( Cheers, S.
