Positive, it's reproducable & I can tell exactly how man queries will be executed by looking at what type of PROPFIND is being done, depth & directory contents.

Are you sure of it?
Unfortunately, mod_authn_socache appears to be for Apache 2.3 & later, it's a great idea though and will have to look into it.The large number of queries happens when the server runs a subrequest on each file to determine whether it's accessible (and therefore whether to include it in the listing). In a normal listing you can turn it on and off with the ShowForbidden option, but I'd have to RTFM to tell whether mod_dav supports an equivalent. But that doesn't explain the difference! FWIW, even if you can't turn the behaviour off, you can avoid the repeated SQL queries with mod_authn_socache. In your case, I'd expect that to get you a substantial performance improvement.
