SVN vs P4

• P4 requires an ever bigger single homed server

• Once you maxed out the RAM on your single homed server and moved your huge db files to a Ramdisk SAN, pray that hardware grows quicker than you

• If your P4 server dies, you need to failover to a replica with downtime and possible lost revisions and client sync issues

• Svn can diff and status while disconnected, p4 cannot

• Price: licenses $$ vs free + admin price in both cases

• Merge Tracking broken in svn, working in p4 (p4 integrate)

• Svn client slow, especially over nfs homedirs (many stats)
