I am making similar observations since 0.29.0 (ok, maybe I haven't checked
that earlier).
I made a test last weekend. Normally I do have eg. php also in apache and I
did
not knew whether this might be related to this additional software or not.

I removed anything from apache except svn and restarted apache to get back
memory
on my server. On weekend there where 6 complete checkouts of my repos from
one
certain client, and just 2 very small checkins (everything script
controlled).
Besides that no svn usage in the network.

On monday morning I made similiar observations. Memory grew to ~800MB. And
I
needed 4 apachectl stop calls to get rid of all running httpds. After one
apachectl start everything is fine for me again. But just for about 24
hours.

I do this stopping and starting apache every day since about 3 weeks. As of
the fact
I couldn't find any reports for this problem on the list I was thinking it
is a home made
problem. But now, it does not seem so...

Affected environment for my weekend thing:
server: apache 2.0.48, bdb 4.0.14, svn 0.33.1, linux 2.4.20
client: apache 2.0.48 (without svn), svn 0.33.0, linux 2.4.20

So it appears there might be some leaking...
