that's because it is. javahl doesn't have an equivalent for svn info
(it will in svn 1.1). same goes for the rest of the performance issues

are you using javahl or cli? javahl doesn't display a password in the
clear to my knowledge, as it relies on the svn libs themselves to do
the heavy lifting. svn cli is much slower as well.
