svnadmin verify performance - CPU bottleneck

On our setup (10k RPM SAS RAID-10 across 6 spindles, AMD Opteron 4180
2.6GHz), we're finding that "svnadmin verify" is CPU-bound and only uses
a single CPU core.

Is it possible that "svnadmin verify" could be multi-process in the
future to spread the work over more cores? Or is that technically
impossible?

(Our current workaround is to divide the list of repositories up and run
multiple concurrent svnadmin verify scripts.)
