Yeah... I just mentioned this on the Subversion dev list. Basically, it looks like the emergency memory-usage problem no longer exists. There's still a mod_dav leak when doing a depth-1 PROPFIND, but it's pretty small. httpd only grows to 22 megs when returning a directory containing 1000 children. It used to be *hundreds* of megs. At the moment, it looks like my time might be better spent trying to make dav_method_propfind streamy. At the moment, the svn client times out (or rather, neon times out) waiting for dav_method_propfind to have its provider push *all* propdata into a text-buffer. Ideally, dav_method_propfind could be rewritten to look like dav_method_report. The latter function creates an output filter, passes it to the provider. The provider then creates a brigade and spews data streamily over the network.
