fine.

The unified diff option is very efficient. It just runs the svn diff
command to produce the output. The graphical compare has to download
every file and then let Eclipse compare them. I am not overly familar
with the internals of this. A lot of it is driven by Eclipse itself. For
example, we definitely do not have anything that would be making multiple
connections at the same time. I suspect that the Eclipse framework must
be doing that. We give Eclipse a class that lets it make call backs that
ask us for the file.

Unfortunately, I do not have anything else to tell you that could help.
