mirror our company repository.  I left it running for almost 12 hours, 
but the initial branch never finished, and bzr-svn chewed up about 
1.17GB of RAM before I aborted it.  

Sounds like the memory leak bug in the svn python bindings to me.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/debian/+source/bzr-svn/+bug/54253

This causes bzr-svn to use enormous amounts of memory which could 
explain the slowness as well if physical RAM was exhausted and swap had 
to be used....

It has been fixed in svn trunk but I think that won't be public until 
1.4.7 of svn.

Cheers,

Nick
