When using "svn cp" on a top-level directory, it *should*

Something like:
A /project/branch/my-new-branch (from /project/trunk:1234)
This would not take much memory at all.
However, I've also occasionally seen stuff like this:
A /project/branch/my-new-branch
A /project/branch/my-new-branch/file1 (from /project/trunk/
file1:1234)
A /project/branch/my-new-branch/file2 (from /project/trunk/
file2:1234)
A /project/branch/my-new-branch/file3 (from /project/trunk/
file3:1234)
.... many more files and directories along the same lines ...
This is exactly what I'm experiencing.
This is what I suspect Geert is seeing in his repository and causing
problems. Perhaps something caused by cvs2svn importing those tags
into
SVN originally?
Yes, most likely. BTW, the conversion from CVS to SVN took about a day
on slightly slower hardware.
