I have tried few months ago but almost burnt my CPU, we need a
powerful machine to do that. I think some of us plan to work on that
during the hackfest in Marseille.

No need for me to explain the gitlab.com vs self-hosting, I am sure
you know the answers already.

I was also told that it was fine for free users to open tickets, although there is no SLA governing response times.

I don’t think rewriting history is the answer, but maybe they need to do some git garbage collection or do something else to “clean up its own internal state”.
