[cvsnt] Sudden slowdown with 2.0.62.1817

[Randy McCharles]

Have you checked the memory usage on the server?
A whole back one of our users check in a LARGE binary file and this cause permanent memory leakage on our CVS server. stop/starting CVS restored the memory, but the problem reoccurred until I removed the large file.

Hi,

I've suddenly run into a strange problem and was hoping someone could point 
me in the right direction.  I've been running 2.0.62.1817 for a good 6-8 
months without problems until recently.

Recently, I've noticed that any CVS action (ie: commits, edits, diffs, etc) 
all take a long time to process.  Whereas these actions in the past would 
take a second or two, I am now seeing delays of 10-15 seconds on a single 
file commit!

I've checked the server itself, and it seems clean.  Have run spybot checks 
just in case, but haven't found anything suspicious.  The machine in 
question is a Window 2000 SP3 machine.  Also, the network connectivity 
between my machine and the server is fine as well - pings are fast, and any 
direct copying to shared folders on the server are quick.

I can't pinpoint exactly when this slowdown occured, however the only 
changes I've made to the system in the recent past was the addition of extra 
repositories.  I would not expect that to cause an issue, however, is it 
possible that a malconfigured repository would be causing such a slowdown?

Is there any way to turn on some form of debug log or something of the sort 
to help me trace where / why this machine has suddenly slowed so much?

Any insight that you can provide would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

Eric
