I've setup Subversion both under Windows and Linux with dual CPUs and RAID 
subsystems.  They've both run for years with no issues.  I also host a 
repository on my machine at home, which is also a dual CPU system, and I do 
all of my Subversion development on it (including stress testing).  Never had 
a problem.

I'm not sure what the deal is here.  Perhaps there is something wrong with one 
of the drivers for your dual cpu system?  As a person who has written a 
number of device drivers over the years, I can attest to the fact that many 
writers do a lot of things wrong.

We switched to a dual CPU server with RAID 5 a few days ago and had exactly
the same problem, but only once. After repairing, it did not occur any more.
We use Apache/WebDAV/SVN version 1.3.
