ok, then you should be fine IMHO. if you start versioning a file that can't
easily fit into memmory a couple of times, then you'll run into performance
issues (as far as I know).

at work we also version our jars (tomcat/shared/lib), but we keep that in
its own tree for convenience.
we have jars up to 3.3M, 91 jars in total, and only 7 revisions.
we don't have any problems.
