(Get the code!)
FWIW, it's possible to work around this by using git-svn and then converting to bzr with fastimport or bzr-git.
In my tests (Bug 243939, from 2008), I found that git-svn used at least an order of magnitude less RAM and ran in a fraction of the time as bzr-svn. However, the workaround won't allow you to 'bzr pull' and get updates from upstream svn, so it may or may not be appropriate. It's only really useful for one-time one-way conversions.
