dump: 1.5 hrs (SVN 1.4.6, BDB)
load: 5 hrs (SVN 1.5.1, BDB)

Both on a P4/1.6MHz/1GB RAM/Win2k SP4 system.
Dumpfile 1.6GB for 2500 revs.

On an otherwise ways speedier Centrino laptop with 2GB RAM (XP
SP2) loading of the very same dumpfile into a 1.5.1 BDB repository
takes 8 hrs, dito svnsync, into an FSFS repository 40 minutes. I
suppose the time gain in loading has a penalty in overall use
speed. There probably is a slight speed gain when the dumpfile is
loaded over a 100Mbit network connection rather than from the
same machine. BTW the size of the FSFS repository is about
30% smaller than the BDB repository as this was recently asked in
another thread.

Not exactly the experience you asked for, but strange enough, too.
