I was testing a script and ran into this problem with 2.5.01 (Travis) Build
1976 and 2.5.01 (Travis) Build 1990.

When I issue a cvs log command on one of our very large binary files, I get
an out of memory error:

>cvs log uaMain2.exe
cvs [server aborted]: out of memory; can not reallocate 415236096 bytes

This is on our hot backup server which is running W2K3 Server, and has 1GB
of memory.  VM is set to 1.5GB, and watching the task manager, CVSNT throws
the error when the PF hits 1.0GB (It's idling at 200MB). 

On our primary server, which is running XP Pro SP1 with 1GB of memory and
2.0.41a this works fine (the repositories are copied from the primary to the
hot backup each night).

The client in both cases is 2.0.62.1817.  The ,v file is 538MB with 37
revisions of 13MB each.

Thanks,

John Cole
