[cvsnt] Out of memory

[Bo Berglund]

If you have files in the list of changed files that are binary, and
these files also are rather big and you have committed a lot of revisions
already, then the "RCS" file on the server that corresponds to this
project file will have grown to very large size.
CVS must read the entire contents of the RCS file init memory when
it processes the commit so the server must have this amount of RAM 
available - in fact I think I remember reading somewhere thet CVSNT
needs 2 times the size of the RCS file as free RAM.

If you have this situation is most easily checked on the server
by sorting all RCS files (filename.ext,v) according to size and
comparing the biggest file to available RAM.

Hi there,
I hit this error message when I was trying to commit one of my
project. Anything I can do to fix this out? My /Document has 14G
source inside.

The server reported an error while performing the "cvs commit"
command. (took 11:09.219)
   Error: Document: cvs [server aborted]: out of memory; can not
reallocate 1250729001 bytes
***

Regards,
Wisley
