Yes, part of our testing will involve concurrency. I should note,
though, that if all 120 of your developers are committing at the same
time -- well, you might consider blanket pay raises for the
Engineering department! :-)

To this, I dunno what to say. Subversion has been hosting its own
source code for years now, with (thank you, God) not a single case of
repository corruption. In all the previous scalability testing I've
performed, I've never been able to corrupt a Subversion repository.
And yet we get these reports...
