Now that I understand your problem, I suspect I could have saved you the
trouble. The problem is almost certainly RCS_magicrev(), which is the
function that finds the new branch number to be used. The way it
currently works is to just try all even numbers starting with 2 until it
finds one that isn't used as a physical branch and doesn't appear in a
magic branch tag. Determining whether a physical branch occurs requires
looking through the entire list of existing revisions, and determining
whether a magic branch tag exists requires looking through the entire
list of tags. As the number of branches increases, the time required
for this operation increases quadratically. A reasonable solution would
be to rewrite the function to run through each list once, remembering
the highest existing branch and then incrementing to the next even
number.
