I just loaded my new subversion database successfully with the dumpfile from my new PinHandler branch. And you don't belive it: the final comparison of roughly 20600 files (~3GB of data) didn't show a single bit of difference.
Did I mention, that you need to have enough memory installed on the machine while running the conversion ;-) Esp. if you have large binary files, that are all committed into the same revisions. Since the code keeps all these records in memory until the revision is finished, the process can slow down tremendiously if the os starts to swap. I'm currently running with a "working set size" of 1GByte and I still have 3000 revisions to go. It also seems, that the memory is not really returned to the OS, probably due to heap corruption.

Since the price of memory isn't that high anymore, this isn't really a problem. Perhaps I should try on our win64 machine with 8GB physical memory ;-)
