Severe svn log performance problems with apache

I know this issue has been discussed several times. I am aware of the SVNPathAuthz Off feature that can be used. But even with the SVNPathAuthz Off set, the performance is completely unacceptable compared to svnserve.

Here's my example running svn log

SVNPathAuthz On time - 1 min 53 s
SVNPathAuthz Off time - 42 s
svnserve - < 1s

I really want to be able to use apache authentication but this performance disparity is forcing me back to svnserve. Any thoughts as to what I might change? I'm using version 1.1.3 server running on redhat 8.0 box. Here's my configuration. I just comment out the SVNPathAuthz line out to test the enable case.

LoadModule dav_svn_module modules/mod_dav_svn.so
 
# Only Needed if you decide to do "per-directory" access control.
LoadModule authz_svn_module modules/mod_authz_svn.so
 
#
# Example location directive.
#
 
 
<Location /repos>
   DAV svn
   SVNParentPath /usr/repos
   SVNPathAuthz Off
   AuthzSVNAccessFile /repos/svn-access-file
 
   Satisfy Any
   Require valid-user
 
   AuthType Basic
   AuthName "Subversion Repository"
   AuthUserFile /repos/svn-auth-file
</Location>

Before anyone makes any suggestions as to modifications, I have have tried this simple version with no speed up.

<Location /repos>
   DAV svn
   SVNParentPath /usr/repos
   SVNPathAuthz Off
</Location>
