I considered that as big from my point of view only. There sure are bigger projects that svn handles
quite well - especially compared to CVS and over slow networks. There were some threads in the past
about pushing svn to it's limits with lots of files and/or huge files.

I didn't hear of any advantage of BDB over FSFS here recently. There was a discussion about running
out of inodes some time ago. Thought it was here, but a quick search got me

I'd start with FSFS and switch to BDB later if necessary.
