Actually, PROPFIND is not (yet) streamy. I switched over REPORT reponses a
while back, and content has always been streamy.

So if *one* directory had 40k files, then there could be problems :-)

However, Gerald followed up to say that is in all directories recursively.
That should not be a problem. We send a PROPFIND for just a directory and
its immediate children. Note that mod_dav will (normally) reject a "depth
infinity" PROPFIND.
