I haven't used SVN, but at a previous job, I used Perforce with great 
success.

We were using cvs before switching to Perforce, and the difference in 
developer performance was tremendous. Branching and merging actually 
worked,  as opposed to cvs.

We had about 20 developers working on a 1.5MLOC system, and Perforce 
never really broke a sweat.

Anyway, my $0.02

Thanks,
Per
