Hi, I'm looking to migrate an existing repository from CVS into SVN and I've been trying to find concrete examples of capacity limits.
Our workflow is to create private branches for bug fixing, feature development, RC testing etc so we end up with a lot of branches and tags over time - CVS is now struggling to support this (time taken to branch is hours). I've seen plenty examples given about the physical size or number of commits supported in an SVN repository, but nothing about the number of branches and tags that can be supported. Basically I'm concerned about performance degradation over time if we continue to create many branches. The numbers I'm talking about are around 2000 branches and 3000 tags, increasing by about 500 per year. Any information or links appreciated.
