I migrated a large CVS repository (25-50 GB) to SVN years ago on SVN
1.3. Our repo had many sections (projects) within it. We had to
migrate each project independently so that it's team could coordinate
when they migrated to SVN. As such, I dumped each project when ready
and then svnadmin loaded each dump into it's own path/root (so as not to
overwrite anything previously loaded and unrelated to this project's
import).
So, you can do it by controlling which path/portion of CVS you use
cvs2vn to create the dump file from.

Split the dumpfile to smaller dumpfiles
How do I do that? I have not found such an option in cvs2svn.
I don't mind writing a script if I knew the idea how to split the dump.
I haven't found any "svnadmin load" option to import part of a dump
either. man what?
or try a newer version of svnadmin.
I am using subversion-1.6.15, it seems to be the latest ported to
FreeBSD.
(or dive into the source and help us plug that memory leak --- compile
with APR pool debugging enabled)
I will try to do that but unfortunately I need some immediate
workaround :(
