Performance of cvs

[Peter Toft]

[Marko Käning]

Actually you might want to try mercurial.
It's concept-wise different from CVS, since it's a distributed system, but
it is (from what I know) faster than SVN and probably even faster than
CVS. But I did not benchmark it.

Try it out and let us know! ;)

Peter,

I think some proxy work was also done in CVS 1.12 but I'm not sure if
it was a full read/write through proxy.

Yes. cvs 1.12.13 has a full write-through proxy. It assumes CVSup or
similar mechanism would maintain the secondary servers and that the
primary server would be used for write operations directed at the
otherwise read-only secondary.

I am not sure if anyone is actively using this feature at this time.

Mark,

In Jungo we used the write-through proxy method for a while in a
remote branch (later this branch was shut off).
