Description
Currently, Central Dogma may suffer from memory pressure when a user attempts to retrive a large number of entries. We could make use of reactive stream to reduce memory pressure.
However, this may require non-trivial change on our internal implementation, including:
- Tree traversal implementations in `GitRepository`
- Caching
- Configuration parameters
