To make JavaHL work over ssh you have to configure ssh tunnel in
Subversion config file (~/.subversion/config), see "tunnels" section in
that file.

However, I doubt that ssh with JavaHL will be faster than on with JavaSVN:
when JavaHL is used native ssh client is launched for each svn request,
when JavaSVN uses persisten SSH connection. Regarding other operations I
suppose that JavaHL is not faster comparing to JavaHL. as JNI calls
(native library call) adds some overhead.

One of the ways to increase JavaSVN performance on OSX and Linux is to set
system property "javasvn.symlinks" to "false". This will disable versioned
symbolic links support but in certain cases could significantly increase
performance. This system property is supported by JavaSVN 1.0.4 that will
be included into Subclipse 1.0.0
