Stefan2 pointed out that format 7 is less efficient if packing is disabled.
So to fully benefit from format 7 in the default configuration, users must
currently run 'svnadmin pack' or edit fsfs.conf to enable packing after commit.
Since format 7 adds locking support to pack, so it should be safe to trigger
packing at any time.
It looks like it makes sense to enable packing after commit by default
for format 7 repositories. Any objections?

pack-after-commit.
