With the BDB backend that's true. Use FSFS instead.

Subversion can provide that natively with svnserve or using Apache 2.

Possible? Sure.

Let's assume you're like me. The development team I work for commit 50
to 60 times per day overall. Let's try some maths here.

50 times 30gb == 1500Gb of data _per day_. About 18 80gb DLT tapes each
day, every day.

Maybe you should rethink a little...
