It's not easy to measure network performance because of different
environments and etc.
Here is number of requests for simple operations against non-HTTPv2 server:
serf serf (no-cache) neon
info 7 9 17
ls 7 8 14
log 7 8 13
pl -v 7 8 14
As you see only 1-2 requests are cached. And actually they cannot be
cached because it's PROPFIND of baseline collection of *youngest*
revision. Current ra_serf implementation assumes that property values
doesn't change during all session lifetime (see problem (3)).
