Linux Kernel Archives Struggles With Git

NewsFiend writes "In May, Slashdot discussed Kerneltrap's interesting feature about the Linux Kernel Archives, which had recently upgraded to multiple 4-way dual-core Opterons with 24 gigabytes of RAM and 10 terabytes of disk space. KernelTrap has now followed up with kernel.org to learn how the new hardware has been working. Evidently the new servers have been performing flawlessly, but the addition of Linus Torvalds' new source control system, git, is causing some heartache by having increased the number of files being archived sevenfold."
