Hi,

        I want to stop this thread because the issue is clear

        everyone not able to see this issue I would recomment the
following test

        1. create an empty rep
        2. fill it with 100M Data using multiple files
        3. do a dump
        4. make tags with svn copy using the whole rep
        5. do a dump again

        -> you will see that the size differ

That's odd. I can't see why tags should do that; they should produce
just a few bytes of dump data.

For what it's worth, we do backup with "svnadmin hotcopy" and then tar
up the copy. Works great; the reposity is perhaps twice the size you
have.
