Does the subversion mod_dav_svn support Apache's MPM-Worker thread configuration?

I'm finding very little documentation so far on this, and I'm looking for better ways to make use of my subversion server resources.

Information I could find is from 2002 http://svn.haxx.se/dev/archive-2002-11/0463.shtml

  • if you have many subversion repos running on Apache 2.4 with mpm_worker you will run in a thread problem. –  Jan 30 '15 at 14:51

It does. I'm using mpm worker on debian 6 in production environment without any problem.

  • Curious to know the approach you took to balance thread/server count. We find a high number of servers to quickly consume all memory, but a high thread to /server ratio performs dead slow. We had 512 max clients, 2 servers, 256 threads. But looks like a 400/20/20 may be better ratio for our 3vcpu/6g/RHEL6 machine. – Eddie Nov 14 '13 at 19:03

On the surface it looks like it does, the easiest way to find out is to build/install apache as mpm-worker, and if the module loads and works as it should then yes it is thread safe.
