Comment 8 for bug 405251

wrt #5:
I am using a smart server on 1.16.1 for the remote part, so no bzr+ssh or "dumb" protocol I'd guess.

As far as the .dll's are concerned: the one you mentioned seems to have been added only once; I did a bzr log --verbose on the CSharpProjects path and it contains the DLL only once. The entire CSharpProjects directory is around 650K so it is the largest DLL there.

The repository's size: the total size of repository + working tree in the standalone (non-shared copy) is 721MB. The .bzr directory there is 456MB. bzr info -v there is reported in comment #7.

wrt #6:
The changes would represent a week worth of work by about 7 developers. My repository was up-to-date with the master on 2009-7-19; I did a "bzr diff -r date:2009-07-18" and it creates a diff of 688KB but this of course does not contain the content of any binaries, sadly enough. Is there any option to create a full patch including the content of added binaries? This would at least give an indication on the size of the delta.

All of the data here was collected using bzr 1.17; I got it for free this morning when I updated my Ubuntu machine (I have the bzr repo added to sources.list). I upgraded to 1.16.1 the same way. I do not know what you mean by "the compiled extensions"; is there any way I can check?

For extra info, please be aware that not just pull is slow here; I have logged bug 405317 for the other, mostly local actions that hardly work anymore. And those problems are also present on the machines of my colleagues which usually have the bad luck of running Windows.
