Hello all:  
I currently have nginx 1.0.5 proxying http to remote svn server. The svn  
repo is over 400G in size and constitutes all large binary files with a  
active userbase of about 4000. All works fine connecting directly with  
an svn client. Adding nginx in the mix we are seeing occasional time out  
errors in the nginx log. I have adjusted the some of the config time  
outs to be 75 seconds with no obvious luck. We are also seeing problems  
with the svn clients aborting with no recorded nginx error.

What I am wondering is, are there buffering streaming other config  
options that I am missing ? Should I move to a newer version of nginx ?
