Optimising branching and merging big repositories between far away locations...

[Asmodehn Shade]

Hi *,

Alright I recently updated to bzr 1.8.

I have repository of a few gigs size ( because of the size of the files in
it ) with usually around 100 revisions in each branch.

I need to branch from one place to another ( usually quite far away = high
latency ) or merge differences.
However it appears to be quite slow.

Despite the bandwidth limitation and the time needed to transfer big files
anyway, for some reasons it s much slower than scp for example.
Also despite the big bandwidth ( few Mbps ) available the transfer rate can
go down to 1Kbps and stay there for quite a long time...

I am using bzr+ssh ( the fastest protocol I could find... ) the repository
format is whatever the default is (on 1.5 ) when you "bzr init-repo"

So I was wondering if someone here had advise on how I can make the overall
branching / pulling / merging operations faster if possible...
using more bandwidth or something else...

Thanks for your advice ;-)
