There appears to be some confusion here. I was referring to format
under the repository root. The references you gave me appear to refer
to db/format. My original 1.4.x repository had format = 3 and db/format
= 1. When I created the new repositories, format was bumped to 5. I do
not know what db/format was as I already deleted them, but I'd assume
db/format for the 1.5.x fsfs repository was 3.

My primary question though, was simply whether bdb was normally as
space-inefficient as my test showed and whether I should consider it
over fsfs for Subversion 1.5.x or 1.6.x+.
