Error description
After applying IBM Rational ClearCase fixpack 7.0.1.2 or later there can be a degradation in the performance of making baselines. This is particularly significant in streams that have their foundation on the INITIAL baseline of many components and start by importing a large number of files. (by clearfsimport for example) Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create, say, 50 new, empty components. 2. Create a new project, with foundations on the 50 empty components. 3. In the integration stream, create an activity, and using that one activity create 2,000 or more new files in each component. 4. Make a fully labelled baseline. It is reasonable to expect this to take quite some time. 5. Create a new activity. 6. Make one new version of one file. 7. Make an incremental baseline. It is reasonable to expect this to be quite quick, but it also takes quite a while. Workaround: There is no known workaround for this issue.
