You said a lot about how large your repository is, but very little
about how large your working copies are. Are you actually checking
out the entire repository? Most very large repositories are
structured such that you check out subsets of them for day to day
work, if you really need to check out 140000 files for each working
copy, that may have performance implications.
Also, FWIW, that totally useless error message from your checkouts
should at least be a less useless error message in Subversion 1.5. I
fixed that recently.

Why not? Assuming you build with a suitable version of APR you should
be able to dump arbitrarily large repositories...
