How does it handle an artist that creates 182 versions of a 80 megabyte 
binary file in the course of 3 weeks? I suppose CVS would end up with 14 GB 
of archives, by which time it has probably long croaked :-)

I've looked at Perforce in the past, it's a really nice product, simliar to 
what we already know. But does it handle really, really large amounts of data?
