Hi. I have a svn 1.9 repository, created with svnsync, that has ~150000 revisions and size about 45 GB. Due to some issues in svn-all-fast-export I wanted to have svn 1.8 version repository so I downgraded it by doing svnadmin (v 1.9) dump /svnadmin (v 1.8) load cycle. I was surprised that the size of v 1.8 repository is "only" 37.5 GB I tried to compare content of db\revs folder: some files are bigger in 1.8 repo, some in 1.9 repo.
Now I'm wondering: 1. Is such size increase expected for 1.9 repository? I read that 1.9 was aimed at speed optimizations, but 20% size increase compared to 1.8 sounds pretty big... 2. Or is my "dumped and reloaded 1.8" broken somehow? How could I verify? (dump revisions one by one and compare? Or is there any better way?) Gert
