Really 14hours?!

Have you tried to change the way the dump is done?

Well you can only pipe to file as the output is on stdout. We just ran it through cmd.exe instead. 8 mins is fine - it's a 12Gb repo.

I assume it's related to PS converting every line into a system.string.

Followed by massive GC most likely. Thanks for sharing.
