RE: svn log hangs?

I found a post from 2004 ...

 
http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ReadMsg?listName=users&msgNo=20660

... that seemed to say that this type of authorization (mod_authz_svn,
or SVNPathAuthz) could be disabled. What type of authorization is this?

If it is authorizing by user whether I can see every revision of every
file, then I think we can disable this. Though we want the repository
data secure for the company, it's all a big playground for the group to
work in, and we have no reason to hide parts of the repository from
certain people.

The thing that really matters is the number of files modified in a
given revision, not the number of times a given file has been
modified. So if you have, for example, a single revision where you
imported a ton of files, a log that goes over that revision will need
to do a lot of authz checking to see if you're allowed to see it. Try
a log that explicitly avoids revisions like that, and see if it speeds
things up.
