It couldn't even convert the gcc repository from scratch last time i tried it, and what it left me with (30k revisions) took *forever* to perform any operation on (IE literally hours to run log commands). They could have made massive strides since then (this was a little over a year ago), but I wouldn't trust anything with that large of a scaling issue to have solved it in such a short time.
