It should have mentioned that I work on NetBSD, so valdgrind is not an 
option..

Thought that. So, my case really is a special case? And tla is supposed to 
handle thousends of files well without doing anything.

I didn't do anything yet. ;-) I just checked out pkgsrc from 
:pserver:address@hidden:/cvsroot ( see http://www.pkgsrc.org/ ) 
and imported it into a fresh tla archive. This operation took huge amounts 
of ram. After that I tried to (tla) add some files to that archive and 
commit them. Thats the point where I am now (before the commit). If it 
would help I could make the archive after the tla import available, but 
it'd probably be faster to just grab pkgsrc from netbsd.org and import it 
locally than to get it from my server...

Cheers,
Marc
