Hi Alex,
With the team at Bordeaux, we are working on an implementation to query histories (the tool is named VPraxis).
I implement a importer for Smalltalk.
For now, I can load histories for a package, for a metacello configuration, from a repository.
A first part is build in Pharo (building snapshots from Monticello), and a second part in build with our java software and build the history file. We can export xml, sql or swipl, which allows us to build prolog queries.
For Smalltalk, I am working on it.
An important point is that we do not into account the multiple branches (it is a current work :) ). So, when there are multiple branches, for now, we check were is the merge and we "ignore the multiple branches".
For the package Mondrian-Layout, it returns: L = [id_MOAbstractGraphLayout, id_MOCircleLayout, id_MOSugiyamaLayout].
Which are the three classes that have changed more that 10 times.
For now, I am working on packaging all the things together.
But if you have some other requests, do not hesitate to ask me :)
Cheers,
Jannik

Having a reification in Moose of 100 versions of Mondrian for example :-)
Just answering the question 'Which classes and methods of Mondrian have changed more than 10 times since the day Mondrian was born?' cannot be easily done without a lot of memory

I'm wondering: how big is a dataset > 500MB ? I've no idea how big it is.
Alex, what is your use case (in practice!) for more than 500MB?

It is problematic, and requires different memory management than we
currently have.
I think if you need really big data sets, then use gemstone, which is
developed to deal with that specifically.
