After the 15000th commit, the size of the repository on disk is 5.5G

must be some design flaw (or peculiarity if you like) of SVN.
Probably related to the way directories are represented in the repository.
See http://svn.haxx.se/dev/archive-2011-02/0007.shtml
and also http://svn.haxx.se/dev/archive-2011-02/0014.shtml for some hints
to how this currently works.
I'd expect even local operations like the compare against the pristine
versions to decide what to commit to become slow when you put many
thousands of files in one directory because most filesystems aren't good
at that either (although they make fake it with caching). It's one of
those "if it hurts, don't do it" things.
