7000 files is one thing. How big is the repository in disk size? And are
most of the files in one directory? Linux ext2 or ext3 filesystems before
the 2.6 kernel would take quite some time to deal with many thousands of
files in one directory, for example.

Are you using bdb or fshs for the repository on the server? And which
particular version of subversion, with which particular FreeBSD release and
filesystem?
