I can't say that it is particularly common to have a single file larger
than 400k changed more than 6k times in the history of a project. But I
suppose if you versioned the build output (and then went to annotate
that output...)

Do you have numbers to compare against? (Your largest and longest living
file, etc.)

I *am* slowly working on an annotation cache, which would store
snapshots of the annotation at various points in time. (So that 'bzr
annotate' doesn't have to continue to be an O(file_history) operation.)

That's going slow, as I'm working on refactoring some of our code to
make it easier to have arbitrary caches of this sort.
