I regret to say that I failed to reproduce the improvement with a deployed
server and a couple of real-world repositories.

After setting up a D-series Microsoft Azure virtual machine [1] with
Apache 2.2.29, Subversion 1.9.x and simplest httpd.conf content, I tried to
reproduce the lag by just running 'svn log' for both http:// URIs and working
copies. I couldn't tell the difference by eye, so, I cooked up a dirty patch
for the command-line client that measures the time between svn_client_log5()
call and the print call for the first log entry.

Then, I repeated my tests against the patched and the non-patched 1.9.x
servers. The results are attached, and they do not show any noticeable
difference. Does anybody have a strict reproduction script with a 1.9.x
server that shows the practical benefit from this patch?

Thanks in advance.
