Well for what it's worth we run svnserve.exe on Windows Server 2003 R2, virtual server on VMware ESX.
The virtual machine has 1 CPU, 4GB of RAM, 1 Gbit network adapter. The hard disk is on a SAN and connection is via iSCSI. This is running really well for us.

Before we got this server though I ran it on a Windows XP desktop machine without problem (sorry can't remember the specs).

Hope that helps.
Keith.
