I've got 6 developers working on an 8,000 file repository, merging
changes from another (bigger) team so regularly changing several hundred
files. Never had any corruption problems, never had any performance
problems. I realise this isn't 120 users and 30,000 files, but it
definitely signals to me that Subversion pretty much works. I'd trust it
as much as CVS, and more than VSS or StarTeam, but less than Perforce
(which rocks, but costs money).

The only problem I've had is the Windows client "access denied"
problems, but there's a workaround being put into place for that.

Cheers,
Mike.
