Does it make sense to make that configurable via an env variable at all?
I suspect the vast majority of people would not hit this bug unless they
are dealing with repositories polluted with hundreds of refs created by
automation (like the codeaurora chromium repo).

E.g. can be set via an Apache directive like

SetEnv FOO_MAX_SIZE 2048

The backend can then be configured to emit an error message when the
spool size is exhausted saying "foo exhausted, increase FOO_MAX_SIZE to
allow for moar foo."
