Description

I have been able to replicate the Node.js NPM database until 40G or so, then I get this:

I one case I have gotten a flat-out OOM error, but I didn't take a dump of the log output at the time.

CentOS6.4 with CouchDB 1.5 (also tried 1.3.1, but to no avail). Also tried to restart replication from scratch - twice - bot cases stalling at 40GB.
