Re: Commit pipelining

I mean sending multiple write requests without waiting for responses. Eg,
sending a MKCOL (for add_directory) and then a PUT for a file inside that
directory without waiting for the MKCOL response. A server which
parallelized the processing (though not the response) of pipelined requests
could be confused by that. (Recall that the delta editor's spec states that
errors might not be returned from the exact erroneous call but possibly from
a later call; ra_svn's pipelining depends on this.)

I know serf does pipelining for updates (right?) but that should be less
dangerous than pipelined writes.

Hi David,

What do you mean with "commit pipelining"? I have dirty patch for
serf/libsvn_ra_serf to that eliminates spooling delta to temporary
file and sends it immediately to server. Is it "commit pipelining"?
       This patch requires substantial improvements, for which I
unfortunately do not have time now. I can post this patch here if
someone interested to finish it.
