Sounds like this is related to the yellow box here? http://subversion.apache.org/docs/release-notes/1.7.html#server-performance-tuning We recently ran into a case where the default cache settings resulted in performance issues during checkout of a tree with large directories, so bad that clients just gave up and disconnected while the checkout was still running. Configuring the cache made the system usable. If this change avoids this problem by default, I like it. And thanks for the detailed explanation!
