Chris,
Sorry for not posting a follow up message to the mailing list. I've
been busy :-).
We did much to diagnose the problem, but have not diagnosed the root
cause at this time. We were able to mitigate the problem by disabling
the use of MPM Worker in Apache. We moved to prefork, and have not had
an event since.
We encountered several ways the corruption would be manifested:
Invalid diff stream: insn cannot be decoded
Invalid diff stream: insn overflows the target
Svndiff contains corrupt window header
Missing node-id in node-rev
The invalid diff stream variants were by far the most common.
Factors influencing occurrence of problem were:
Large commits. The larger the commit, the more likely the corruption.
Remote connections. The more remote the connection, the more likely
the corruption.
It's on my todo list to localize the problem and generate a fix, but it
will likely be a month or more before I get back to it. My best *guess*
is that there is a threading issue with Apache or Subversion.
