Just configure the kern.maxvnodes sysctl as high as you can and
let the VM cache handle pulling the most commonly accessed parts
of the repository into memory.  cvsup12 runs with this set to
200000, but you can probably do 250000 or 300000 or more since
you can commit more memory than cvsup12 has.  Just make sure to
keep it from swapping.
