Checkout causing server to crash

Here's a strange one.

When i check out a certain project using Subclipse, the SVN SERVER runs out of memory and the process gets killed by oom-killer.

It only happens when I specify a revision (rather than HEAD), but it happens with several different revisions.

The surprising thing is that this happens with SVNKit AND JavaHL (SVN 1.8.5). But when I try the same thing on the same command line SVN client, there's no problem:

svn checkout svn+ssh://user@host/repo/project/branches/foo -r 123456 --depth=infinity --force

When it happens, nothing appears in the SVN console (not even the "checkout" command). The task in Progress says "Checking out foo:". It hangs for 5-10 minutes, then the server breaks the connection, and Subclipse shows this error:

Failed in RemoteResource.getLogMessages()
org.apache.subversion.javahl.ClientException: APR does not understand this error code
svn: ra_serf: The server sent a truncated HTTP response body.

It happens with both svn+ssh and https.

I'm using Eclipse 4.4.1, with all updates, and Subclipse 1.10.9, on Mac OS X. A colleague with the same setup, but running Debian, has the exact same issue.
