Yes. Fedora Core 1, full install for the client.

I would agree that import is rare, but a full checkout is less rare....

Still, the times between CVS and an SVN server shouldn't be *THAT* far
off. I can understand that the HTTP would be a bit slower due to the
extra chattiness of it, but still not 10x slower!

Granted for small check-ins, or small repositories, performance is
basically irrelevant/non-comparable. But when comparisons *can* be
made, it would be nice to know why there are huge differences..

I'll check out 1.0.2 over the next couple of days and report back..

Thanks!
