I assume you restarted since then? What does it show when memory use is
normal?

I have (just to compare):
4 complete checkouts of TSVN (different branches/tags and trunk)
  TSVN has 6 external projects
21 other checked out projects, 7 of them with 2-6 externals

But I've never seen the cache use more than 180MB of memory.
