I actually mean something more like a _constant_ cache where TSVNCache
uses the .svn folders to manage its own cache. Then it only has to look
at the top-level .svn folder of a sub-directory and know what icon
overlay to display.

A wide variety of text and binary files (mostly text files and a lot of
source code files). There is almost 17 years of programming-related
stuff that has never been under version control before that I spent this
past week dumping into TSVN. I ran a backup last night and the TSVN
database actually compressed an additional 12%...which, at that size, is
a fairly significant difference. I'm still not quite sure what exactly
is making my revisions so big since just about everything should
compress really well.
