bzr performance (blitz speed on GNU/Linux compared to M$)

[Alexander Belchenko]

I can confirm this effect.
Can you say what version of bzr you're using on windows: python-based or standalone bzr.exe?

I must say the performance of bzr on GNU/Linux is far superior than on M$. I am no expert to figure out which portions of bzr are heavily OS layer dependent. It may be worth an exercise to find out portions of bzr which depend a lot on the OS provided services like file IO or network layer or ...

I am posting this here so that when someone else sees slow performance, they could look at what AV is doing when bzr is working. If bzr makes lot of file open->read/write->close, that triggers the AV. Maybe, fewer open with multiple writes is better. Not sure if this is relevant in the context of bzr.
