Are you using an old version of svn?

This is a known bug in apache, not svn. We're working on it,
hopefully it will be fixed in the next apache. See svn issue #773.

Again... I wonder if you're using an old version of svn...

...because Philip and I recently measured doing an 'svn up' of a
directory with hundreds of files, and the memory usage was an order of
magnitude less than what it used to be -- for 1600 files in one
directory, the server only used 33 MB memory. So that's why I'm
wondering if you're using an old apache or old svn.
