Shelve and unshelve dead slow in TortoiseHg 2.1.1 (Large repo)

Hi,

We are running Mecurial 1.8.2 and are running the 2.1.1 version of the client.

We have a repo with 177,000 files and 14,476 folders.

I have a number of files that needed to be shelved (around 50 files, around 20 MB) which I shelved. This exercise took around 20 minutes.

I then re-synchronised with our repo which included around 20 changesets with 440 odd file changes. This pull and update occurred fairly quickly, around 20 - 30 seconds.

I then went into the shelve option in the workbench, selected my shelve set and clicked to retrieve it. I have been sitting for 40 minutes waiting for the files to unshelve and it has yet to complete.

When I look at the task manager the tortoise application is certainly busy.

Is this a known issue? Surely it cannot take this long to unshelve files? Is there a setting that we may be missing on our side?

Thanks,
Anton
