I've seen revisions where millions (yes, I said millions) of files were changed at one time, so I feel ra_serf needs to be able to handle 10's of millions of files in trunk alone during an update without needing TBs of memory... (I'm not saying I would recommend using Subversion in this way, just that I have seen older versions abused in amazing ways...) Kevin R.
