That's true: ra_serf is significantly faster when working with pre-1.7
servers because it have DAV baseline cache (see r1080245 and
subversion/libsvn_ra_serf/blncache.c). It dramatically reduce number
of PROPFIND requests when working with pre-1.7 servers. But it's not
used when server is HTTPv2 capable. That's why I didn't ported this
cache to ra_neon, while it's should be easily possible.
