North Carolina sample dataset
test from

g.region rast=elev_state_500m@PERMANENT res=100
# gives about 28 million cells

v.to.rast urbanarea@PERMANENT use=val val=1 out=urbanarea --o
r.cost in=cost start_rast=urbanarea out=dist_urban percent_memory=20 --o
grass7 r.cost
real 0m55.349s

grass65 r.cost

sys 23m37.921s
Results are identical. Reducing the memory percentage gives a hefty
speed penalty in grass6, not so in grass7. Memory consumption is also a
bit lower in grass7. IMO, 28 million cells is not a lot for today's
standards, and I dare say r.cost is ready for massive datasets.
Enjoy,
