well, i'd hoped that i could make a definitive test. i modifed .subversion/servers and set http-compression=no, did a complete checkout, and it worked.
i unset http-compression (back to yes, i guess) in .subersion/servers, did a complete checkout, and it worked. so at 5a.m. EST it appears to work and nothing was proven. it could be that http-compression causes the cpu usage to spike when running the checkout requests and they have a ulimit or other clamp on the host process which kills it. i'll rerun the same test around noon and see what results i get. t _______________________________________________ Axiom-developer mailing list Axiom-developer@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/axiom-developer
