Hi all,

I'm using mercurial with the release25-maint branch. I noticed that checking out a local repository now takes more than 5 minutes (it should be around 30s).

I've tracked it down to this change: http://hgpy.de/py/release25-maint/rev/e9446c6ab3cd this is svn revision 61009. Here is the diff inline:

--- a/Lib/socket.py Fri Mar 23 14:27:29 2007 +0100 +++ b/Lib/socket.py Sat Feb 23 20:30:59 2008 +0100 @@ -305,7 +305,7 @@ self._rbuf = "" while True: left = size - buf_len

self._rbufsize if 1, and so the code reads one byte at a time. this is clearly wrong, I'm posting it to the mailing list, as I don't want this issue to get lost in the bugtracker.
