svn list slow with http: but not with file:

Hello folks,

I have a small problem with the performancer of the command svn list
http://host/repo/tags and hope you could help me.
The repository contains about 17700 revisions. In the directory /tags
there are 470 subdirectories (tags). It takes 16-22 seconds to list them
with the commando above from a remote client. If I try to list them on
the server directly with svn list file:///path/to/repo/tags it takes 2-3
seconds. What should I do to get a better performance on svn list
http:// ?

The server system:
DELL PE 2450 PIII 733MHz
SCSI RAID 5
SuSE Linux 9.2
LVM + XFS
Apache 2.0.58
Subversion 1.3.1 with FSFS backend

Thank you for your advices in advance !

Regards,
Hermann Maurer
