bzr log . in a subdirectory in our source tree is really slow.

: [dev ~/src/sub/dir]; time ~/bazaar/bzr-2.3.0/bzr log . > /dev/null
real 239m47.698s
user 235m20.205s
sys 3m5.399s

That's pretty exactly 4 hours, my colleagues are complaining, which is understandable...
The machine was otherwise mostly idle during this.

The repository is about 400M and has 21670 revisions, 2a format.
The attached callgrind is for bzr 2.3.0 source release, using CentOS 5 and python 2.4
