> The initial assumptions for the ChangeSetFilterImpl was for exclude paths (and include paths for that matter) to be a rather small set, perhaps less than 10. In real-life scenarios larger sets were seen, which render the {{excludes()}} algorithm there very non-well performing. As for large exclude sets the iteration through its patterns for each of the ChangeSet-paths becomes an O(n*m). This should be avoided and instead a deterministic approach taken.
> The suggestion is to switch to an '_unprecise_' mode when the exclude paths passed to the ChangeSetFilterImpl is very large. In that case it can determine a reasonable set of parent paths, which it then compares against the ChangeSet paths. If one of those unprecise exclude paths matches, it shall treat this as 'possibly excluded' - which means if the include paths match in that case, the filter should stop and conclude with 'include'.
