We've had a much more positive experience with bdb. We've been running a
bdb repository via svnserve for the last 3 months. 600mb repository
across 28000 files, 13000 imported-from-cvs commits plus 700 new
commits, 10 developers, plenty of concurrent access going on.

It has never wedged or needed recovery.
