Re: svn 1.3 crashing after sometime

 Hello,

Your repository layout is probably "linear" now.

According to the number of revisions, revision sizes and the underlying operating system
it may be interesting to switch to "sharded" layout and tune the shard size (default is 1000 revisions):

A good performance test case is to measure time required by "svnadmin verify" to check your repository.

Best regards,
