Bazaar Explorer using over 100MB and "out to lunch for 15 minutes"

 

Using bzr 1.18 and bzr 0.8...

I just used BE to init a 1.14 repo in an existing project directory.
I then used BE to 'bzr add' the top-level directory, which has 10485 entries
(directories and files).
The add went ok.
It took BE 15 minutes (!!) to refresh the view, during which time
Application Not Responding.  Memory use peaked at about 102MB.
When the refresh finally finished, memory use dropped back to 59MB.  Still
big, but not as big.

During this time, I had ample time to go to open a DOS shell and do 'bzr
stat' which virtually instantaneously listed the 10485 added files.

The content of 'bzr stat' > LIST.TXT is only 620KB.

Is it possible that BE (Qt) is just not handling strings very efficiently?
Just guessing...

I'm not sure how to write a helpful bug report for this.
