svn status or svn status --show-updates? The former should not access
the repository, and therefore should not be slow even if the
repository is remote, whereas the latter does access the repo and so
could be affected by network latency and bandwidth.

Can you not just call "svn status" (or "svn status --show-updates")
without any arguments? Won't that show you the status of everything
in your working copy?
