No, I wasn't aware of that.  I'll take a look at it.  But I made the change so that it only returns that specific number of item from the svn python binding calls, which speeds up the "pagination" significantly.

I believe this is the 'at_rev' parameter.  That is what I used.  I think I might have over sold myself here, I think i just used what was already available.
