Migration problem : Disk space increased

Hello,
Friday afternoon I migrated from subversion 1.3.2 to 1.4.3 on the office Windows
XP server. I kept the BDB repository in 1.3 format until the end of the day when
I decided after migrating all clients to upgrade the repository itself. To do
that, I stopped Apache, dumped my repository (930 Mb), renamed the folder,
created a new repository using the new format and loaded my dump file into it.
Surprisingly, the new repository is now 1.2 Gb !! That is not what I really
expected to happen after reading the release notes of the 1.4 version.
If you have any idea of what happened and what to do to decrease the size of the
repo, I'll be very happy to hear it from you ;-)
For the moment, I'm not really sure of what will the backup server maintainer
say when seeing such an increase ;-)

Thanks a lot

Fred
