Nono, now that I see what your plan is, it's not terribly unfeasible.
I think you'd make better use of your time soaking up the Indian Ocean
with paper towels, but hey, it's your time. :-)

One caveat: don't expect your second repository to be a true copy of
your first. The repository stores all kinds of interesting bits of
data about how files and dirs have been copied and moved around, and
almost none of that is exposed via the RA interfaces. You should be
able to get a second repository that has the same directory layout and
textual/property contents as the first, but structurally there will be
a world of difference.
