There are some things you can do to make load faster. In 1.10 load has a new --no-flush-to-disk option since a mirror typically doesn't need the fsync() guarantees. On Linux you can use the eatmydata LD_PRELOAD library to achieve as similar thing for releases before 1.10. You may also find that increasing the memory cache speeds up loading: eatmydata svnadmin load -M256 some-repo < some-dumpfile -- Philip
