It's possible you're running out of temp space on your server, or Apache is limiting the size of the commit - I don't think it's Subversion directly limiting you here. Look for a LimitRequestBody directive in your Apache configuration and bump the size up, or if you don't have the directive add it with a limit higher than 4GiB. Is your server 32-bit or 64-bit? If 64-bit, are Apache & the Subversion modules compiled for 32-bit or 64-bit? If it's all 32-bit, I wonder if that's a factor as well.
