I cannot imagine Eclipse overhead is 11 minutes. Assuming this is a Java
project there should be some compiling to do. You should be able to get
an idea on the Eclipse overhead by watching the SVN Console and seeing
when the checkout finishes. Keep in mind that Subclipse also needs to do
a full status crawl of the files which can take a little while. I would
not expect it to be this great. Maybe 3-4 minutes total but not 12. If
it is not too hard to setup http:// you could try that. Maybe JavaSVN is
experiencing some kind of problems with your SSH Server? Typically
JavaSVN is a little faster than JavaHL.

What have you tried? If you have the command line working, and you have
the JavaHL binaries I would almost expect it to just work. JavaHL will
not prompt you for credentials, so you need to be using some kind of
key-agent, but most SSH users already do. I think if you launch Eclipse
from a Terminal session then it ssh will prompt you for info as needed
within that session.

It would be worth seeing how long it takes to do File -> Import of an
existing project. That would give an idea as to how much the combined
Eclipse/Subclipse overhead should be.
