RE: [Subclipse-users] Slowness in svn+ssh

Hello Bradley,

> Is svn+ssh significantly slower than http (apache module)?
HTTP protocol is the slowest one, the fastest one is SVN and regarding
SVN+SSH I expect it to be faster than HTTP, but slower than SVN.

When comparing with command line client, please take in account that Eclipse
introduce some overhead when handling resources that are created by check
out operation.

If you're using Linux or OSX, disabling versioning symbolic links support
could improve performance a lot (set System property
javasvn.symlinks=false). Also, it makes sense to try latest version of
JavaSVN (checkout and build it from http://svn.tmate.org/repos/jsvn/trunk/,
soon there will be 1.1.0-beta2 version published that you'll be able to
download from the web site) - there are number of performance improvements
in that version.
