It seems like Daniel is more asking if this might be indicative of a
bug. Does it ever make sense that svn upgrade would take that long?
Without any need to fetch pristines from the repository as checkout
needs to do, it seems hard to believe that it should take that long.
I can imagine scenarios where we have to calc new checksums or open
and re-read entry data over and over again but 43 minutes?
Daniel, is your working copy on a local hard drive?
