I have a repository running on a Win2K box that has 10,000 revisions
(autoversioning WebDAV repo) and the performance is still great. Esp.
after the first few requests and the file cache starts picking things
up.
Check out the doc for FSFS skip deltas -- it's wicked cool:
http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/notes/skip-deltas
The explanation allayed the last of my fears with FSFS ... to
reiterate what Daniel said, skip-deltas mean that just because a file
has 1000 revisions, SVN doesn't have to read through 1000 rev files to
rebuild the current version.
