I tried without success to reproduce this issue under Mac OS X. This
would tend to support the idea that this bug is Windows-only.

1. Created new repository on a 1.5.2 server. (that's what I've got on
my server).
Using a 1.6.2 client:
2. Checked out empty root of said repository (svn://) into local working copy.
3. Created 50 directories of 10 directories of 50 empty files.
4. svn add all 50 top-level directories, which effectively adds everything.
5. svn commit

The commit ran to completion. The client's RSIZE grew to about 50MB
during the commit.

1. Created a new repository locally using svnadmin 1.6.2
2. Checked out empty root of said repository (file://) into local working copy.
3. Created 10000 empty files in this directory.
4. svn add all files.
5. svn commit.

The commit ran to completion. The client's RSIZE grew to about 22MB
during the commit.
