Yes, Stephane, but what are you trying to tell us, or ask us ?
Obviously, that Finder program has a bug, and makes a bunch of unnecessary requests, ending with the download of all the files in the folder. You should complain to whoever wrote that program. Apache cannot do anything about it, and probably neither can the Dav server you are trying to write. The problem is that, although this client makes those unnecessary requests, all these requests, individually, are valid, in terms of the DAV protocol. So a DAV server has to respond to them, which is what happens with the Apache mod_dav.
The only way to avoid this, would be to refuse that particular client.
I am sure you could do that, using mod_rewrite e.g., but then you would not be supporting Finder, which seems to be your project.
