Description

I'm using

windows server 2003 R2 SP1
apache 2.2.6 (xampp http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-windows.html )
svn 1.4.5

My problem is that the memory usage of the apache process is growing and growing.
It starts with about 20MB and goes up to about 1.5 GB until there is no more
memory and apache crashes.

According to the response on
http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=users&&msgNo=73162 I'm not
the only one who's having this problem

The memory usage only grows when I'm using a svn client.
When I'm browsing the repository with firefox, everything is fine.
