I also think that.... Checkout of same projact as in my first
mail. This time over a slow line (~64kb/s)

svn: 6m33.164s (over http)
svn: 5m19.210s (ra_svn over compressed ssh-connection)
cvs: 1m1.027s (over compressed ssh-connection)

svn over http should be also compressed. neon and svn are
both linked against
libz.

The problem is neither client nor server disk-io. It looks like subversion
sends much more data over the wire.
