Re: faster client pre-1.0: neon prefetching, multithreading

i don't understand. how can it be, that delta is important, if:
- svn gets slow with webdav
  and keeps much faster with ssh,local
  (wasn't it you with that graphic too?)
  delta must be used for both, isn't it?
- svn client blocks the disk, processor is at 2% usage
  (30% of empty "svn up" is just locking)

am i wrong assuming wait-times are the current problem, caused by:
- excessive connection opening via http(s)
  caused by opening a connection for fetching$
  little things
  (like a website with lots of mini-links in it,
  compared to a whole page)
- excessive file opening/renaming caused
  by too much files for the information
?

daniel berlin suggests aio for resolving that ... but i'm not really
convinced that this solves this "scalability issue".
