Hmm.
I had a serious problem about a week ago with TSVNCache gobbling memory
again.
r5416 on XP with an external USB HDD. (Don't think it was networked though)
Normally I don't see the cache using more than about 14Mb on that
computer but it was up to 42Mb. As I recall I had deleted a large
checkout and in turn deleted the resultant contents of the Recovery bin
too. What drew my attention to it was a serious slow down an d finally
an apparent lockup in Explorer. There was nothing much consuming CPU
cycles. In the end XP couldn't write to $mft on the external K: drive,
which is damned serious stuff and it died.

Opportunity to try and diagnose TSVNCache further was lost.
Arn't CD-ROM backups of the whole repository great. Up and running again
in 20 mins.

Just FYI. I don't think TSVN was in any way connected with the HDD
corruption. Drives enclosed in a small sealed box don't like 42deg
ambient heat.
