bzr-svn out of memory error

When I try to do a bzr branch from my svn repo开发者_高级运维sitory I get an out of memory error. The svn repository is very large. Is there a way to give bzr more memory?

Try to branch in small steps. I.e. if you have 1000 revisions in your svn repo, try to branch by 100 revisions or so. I.e. first step

bzr branch URL/to/svn/repo -r100

Then increment revno by the 100

bzr pull -r200
bzr pull -r300

and so on.
