RE: Svnadmin dump/load on multiple processors

It's a very fast Raid 5, I don't think it's the disk because according
to performace tools its reading around 45% only. But there is just one
CPU used, you can see that because it is at 100%.

When loading a dump file into a clean repository one cannot run multiple
scripts, because data is references across the revisions. While dumping
I can do multiple scripts, I tried this with 8 scripts, so all 8 CPUs
were at 80%.

As someone pointed out some days ago, bottlenecks on svn performance may
come from disk, not from cpu.

Since you say you have fileS, perhaps you could create a script that
performs these processes in parallel. Still, depending on your machine
hw architecture this may not help (8 cpus using same disk controller?).

As to your question : I don't know about the dump file format, but from
its output I see when dumping / loading I guess it is something
sequential. If my assertion is true, few things could be done in
parallel.
