Potential regression: high server-side memory consumption during import (was: Subversion 1.10 RC1?)

I think that I am seeing a 1.10 regression in terms of httpd's memory
usage during large imports.

In my environment, when I `svn import` an unpacked version of Boost
(https://www.boost.org/) that consists of around 60,000 files, I see that
the memory consumption by the server process rapidly grows up to 1.5 GB.
The environment is a Windows 8.1 x64 machine with httpd 2.4.29 configured
to use short-circuit authz and HTTPS. Apparently, this behavior is specific
to 1.10, as I cannot reproduce it with 1.9 binaries.

 (I haven't investigated the issue any further at this time, and it might as
  well be reproducible in other configurations.)

Thanks,
