Bug Description
Following on from bug 690021, about scan_branches bogging down the machine:
Apparently scan_branches.py uses a lot of memory scanning some linux import branches. We should work out why and fix it. Log in https:/

Isn't this because scan_branches grabs the whole history of the branches, to figure out what is 'new' to be imported, rather than incrementally walking them to see what is missing? I don't fully understand what bzr needs to do here.
