No, there is no rate limiting at all in 1.8 svnserve: it will attempt to start threads/processes as fast as incomming connections arrive. This can cause the server to run out of resources which may in turn cause processes to get killed. However your test case of 10 simultaneous exports isn't very big so I'd not expect a problem. > The client and server are on a local network connected by 100mbit > Ethernet.

If svnserve is the bottleneck then using thread mode rather than fork mode and increasing the size of the FSFS cache will make svnserve much faster, your network may well become the bottleneck. http://subversion.apache.org/docs/release-notes/1.7.html#server-performance-tuning http://subversion.apache.org/docs/release-notes/1.8.html#fsfs-enhancements -- Philip Martin | Subversion Committer WANdisco // *Non-Stop Data*
