Marco:
   I'll try kcompare on the huge files both on and off the NFS
   file system to see if it has a noticeable impact.

Johannes:
  I read somewhere in the past week that it was possible to maintain
  our existing CVS environment with git. I though it was a separate
  package to export git back to cvs but I just noticed a git-cvsserver
  and as a std part of git and was wondering about using that.

  We have a number of build machines with flamebox perl scripts pulling
  out CVS branches for builds. I was wondering what is the best way to
  use git and it's nicer pull/push model and merge facility and possibly
  maintain CVS exports for scripts doing builds if possible the cvsweb
  and bonsai (CVS Query Form) that a number of engineers are currently
  using. I started looking over out flamebox scripts with the intent
  up converting them over to git but I mentioned the git to cvs
  coexistence and we are wondering if that's a better route than
  upgrading the flamebox scripts. Having our existing cvsweb, bonsai,
  and gitweb along with the git utilities seems at least desirable.
  Any thoughts or suggestions?
