Memory leaks after prod upgrade of subversion to 1.7.2

[Rp0013 <rp...@gmail.com>]

We migrated to subversion 1.7.2 today from 1.4.6 and seeing sudden issues with memory

The free memory drops suddenly (24g memory on the box) 

We have upgraded only the server and clients are various versions 1.4.6 1.4.2 1.6.9 etc

I saw some mention of memory leaks but this seems like a major issue

 
We are using 

Red hat 5

Apache 2.2

Neon 0.29.6

Apr 1.4.5

Apr util 1.3.12

Surf 1.0.0

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Regard,

Rajesh

actually in the pipeline for a new update are at
http://www.github.com/nkadel/ for both 1.7.4 and 1.6.18, both of which now
build on RHEL 4. (Moo-ha-ha!)

It would be useful to know what backend you use (FSFS or BDB), what
authn and authz configuration you have, and what is the minimal httpd
config that still reproduces the leak.
