Something like that is what I'm doing with my nascent, not quite ready
for primetime, tool named "Darcsforge" [1].  I use apply posthook
agents to marshal change information into a relational database,
because database optimization and scaling are "solved problems", or at
least well known problems with plenty of "experts", as well as to
cache a few other things into static files.  If you browse through my
Patch Trackers you'll never hit a page that executes *any* darcs
queries directly.

Darcsforge itself

[1] Excuse the inherent egotism of this name, it's meant as an ideal
goal rather than a description of its currently rather humble
half-complete state.
