What do you get w/ Windows on the command line, to compare Linux vs.
Windows w/o Eclipse being a factor? Or, try Eclipse/Subclipse on Linux
to compare with Windows/Eclipse/Subclipse. Either way, it sounds like
you're making good progress against the claims that these developers
are making about SVN.
Is it possible to break the project down into smaller chunks to check
out? Granted, you can't *stop* the developers from checking out "too
much", but you can at least offer them alternatives to get things done
quicker.
OTOH, how frequently do they *really* need to be checking out a full
WC in the first place?

It's been so long since I set up Eclipse & Subversion that I've
forgotten what I'm using - probably whatever the default is. I haven't
had a chance yet to run a checkout w/ Eclipse & the command line for
my project to see if there's a significant difference.
