I've run into a strange problem where the dav layer completely fails
when more than 1024 files are opened. Every request ends up returning
a PROPFIND error (when linked against subversion 1.3 - 1.2 seems to
fail in a different manner). svn:// and file:// urls still seem to
work fine in this case, only http:// and https:// urls fail. I've
created a repro case that I'm attaching to this message. I'm on
macosx 10.4.6, and I have no idea if this test code will work on
other systems. Below is the output when running my repro program. Why
do I have that many files open? ZigVersion is monitoring it's working
copies by using kqueue/kevents, and it ends up keeping a file handle
open on each file/directory. So it's easy to see how I quickly exceed
1024 files open in many cases.
