CVS repo: only 22 MiB.
Dump file generated by cvs2svn (0.24.2): 289 MiB
SVN repo including log files: 706 MiB [Remarkable but not relevant]
SVN repo with log files removed: 59 MiB
SVN repo with log files removed, compressed using gzip -9: 37 MiB
The SVN repository is almost three times the size of the CVS repository.
Is this normal? I though SVN would beat CVS, especially for binary files
