Re: Two performance notes from the outside world

While trying not to over-advocate, this link might worth appear in
the book or FAQ about vendor branch:

http://svk.elixus.org/index.cgi?SVKForSubversion

It describes how to use svk as an external tool (just like
svn_load_dir) to help importing vendor branches to subversion
repositories.

(note that cvs is still 4x faster in vanilla import, 2x faster subsequently)
