The more I think about it, the more likely it seems. Does it mean that on a 32bit OS I am stuck hopelessly? A dump/load cycle will eventually fail as the repository grows beyond a certain size? BTW here are the limits for the svn user: $ whoami svn $ limits Resource limits (current): cputime infinity secs filesize infinity kB datasize 524288 kB stacksize 65536 kB coredumpsize infinity kB memoryuse infinity kB memorylocked infinity kB maxprocesses 5547 openfiles 11095 sbsize infinity bytes vmemoryuse infinity kB pseudo-terminals infinity swapuse infinity kB $ uname -srm FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE-p2 i386 -- Victor Sudakov, VAS4-RIPE, VAS47-RIPN sip:suda...@sibptus.tomsk.ru
