Converting CVS repository with huge binary files

I just tried to convert a CVS module to Mercurial.  It has huge binary
files and it failed after 6 hours after converting only 10 of over 60
changesets.  I was using the --datesort option.  Would it help to omit
it?  Is there anything else I can do?  It looks like the CVS server
has 4G of RAM.
